CSS3 Named Colours
The table below provides a list of the X11 colours supported by popular browsers with the addition of gray/grey variants from SVG 1.0. The resulting list is precisely the same as the SVG 1.0 colour keyword names. The two colour swatches on the left illustrate setting the background colour of a table cell in two ways: the first column uses the named colour value, and the second column uses the respective numeric colour value.
Note: Red and Blue are true RGB primary colours: 255,0,0 and 0,0,255, but Green is 0,128,0. Primary RGB green (0,255,0) is named ‘Lime’. Yellow, Magenta and Cyan are all true RGB secondary colours, but Cyan (0,255,255) and Magenta (255,0,255) appear twice, also being named ‘Aqua’ and ‘Fuchsia’ respectively. ‘Grey’ can either be spelt correctly, or ‘gray’.
