Web Browser Colours

Once upon a time, when most computers were limited to display a maximum of 256 colours, web designers had to take care to pick colours carefully to make sure that any coloured text or backgrounds would not exhibit unsightly dithering.

Today, this is not much of an issue, as most computers in use are set to display thousands or even millions of colours.

This table is provided as a reference and learning aid. You can use it to look up the HTML codes for the colours you wish to use.

If you are having trouble viewing the darker colours in the table, use the mouse to highlight the text, and you will be able to see the codes.
