Good advice. I'll have to check that out for exact color codes. I've coded HTML so long, that I just get an idea of what I want and put in what I think it should be.
For anyone interested, the codes use the the RGB base and goes from 00 to FF. That would be #RRGGBB. Pure Red would be #ff0000, but if you want a pink, that would be like #ffaaaa for a light one.
When I did the Church of SPAM web page, I color coded the background #000066 for a dark blue and then text was #ffff00 for yellow.
