Colors, Colorname and Color values In HTML: Basic HTML

Different colors are defined by different values in the web. Hexadecimal notation is used to define the values when values are defined by the hexa decimal code then that values define a color. We all know that there are 3 primary colors. They are Red, Green and Blue. The highest value of hex FFFFFF defines the white color and the lowest value 000000 defines the black color. Likewise all the colors are defined by different values. The hex values are defined by the 5 digits which start with a # sign.

Some color examples:
#000000 -> Black
#FF0000 -> Red
#0000FF -> Blue
#FFFF00 -> Yellow
#FF00FF -> Pink
#C0C0C0 -> Gray
#FFFFFF -> White
