Extended Colors

These names will work in Internet Explorer, and in most modern versions of other browsers, but it is safer to use the RGB or hexadecimal values if you are not sure what browsers your audience will be using.

Web-safe colors appear in bold. Colors from the basic set appear with an asterisk (*). There is some overlap between the two, but they are not synonymous. See the Web–Safe Table for a complete set of Web-safe colors.
