Colours by Name, RGB and HEX

Referred to as the X11 Colour Names this Colour Naming convention was originally rejected by the W3C and may not be recognized by many browsers. Therefore I advise you not to use them, instead the HEX and RGB equivalents are included. Not all colours appear correctly in 256 colour mode either depending on the browser. (Close and re-open your Browser if changing the Desktop Colour Depth as most programs access this information when starting and may force the wrong palette)

Note: MS FrontPage Editor v2+ will auto-convert coded "Colour Names" to their "HEX" equivalents.

The Table Below Lists "Colour Names" by HUE.
