Beyond the Son of Filamentality

Fiddling with Customized Text Colors

A new feature of Netscape 2.X is that you can choose different Colors! Individual letters might be a bit much, but what about accenting key words, or better yet, headings? What makes this even easier is that you don't have to use the weird hexy dexy RGB number letter codes; you can use actual words like:

black
maroon
teal
olive
navy
red
green
yellow
blue
purple
lime
gray
silver
fuchsia
aqua
white

Example, for red text all you have to do is type the HTML code:

<font color=red>for red text</font>

Note: Remember that these will only show up for people using Netscape 2.X and people might send you snotty email about it but that's a Web page all to itself.
