HTML Color Codes and Names – Complete List
HTML color codes are hexadecimal triplets representing the colors RED (R), GREEN (G), and Blue (B) (#RRGGBB). For example, in the color red, the color code is #FF0000, which is ‘255’ red, ‘0’ green, and ‘0’ blue. There are 16,777,216 possible HTML color codes, and all are visible on a 24-bit display.
These color codes can change the color of the text, background, and tables on a web page. They can also reference exact colors in photo editing programs like Canva, Adobe Photoshop, etc.
Color Numbers
Color numbers are specified using hexadecimal (base 16) values. The hexadecimal digits are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F (where A through F equal the base 10 numbers: 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15).
The six-digit color number is broken into three groups of two digits which specify the amount of Red, Green, and Blue in the color (using additive color, the way colored lights mix, not the way color pigments mix).
Each two-digit hex pair can have a value from 00 to FF (FF=256 in base 10). This gives over 16 million possible colors (16,777,216 to be exact). For example:
#0000FF means no Red or Green, and FF worth of Blue. The result is BLUE.
#FFFFFF means full FF amounts of Red, Green, and Blue. The result is WHITE.
#000000 means no Red, Green, or Blue. The result is BLACK.
Note: It is OK to use either uppercase or lowercase letters for the base-16 digits A, B, C, D, E, F. Also, put in the # symbol when specifying color numbers. Older versions of HTML didn’t care if you left it out, but some web browsers are stricter about this, and if you forget the # sign the browser may not display the color you requested.
Web Safe Colors
Nowadays, computers/monitors can display thousands or millions of colors, so the concept of “Web safe colors” is no longer important. But years ago, computers were limited to displaying “8-bit color” and could only show 256 possible colors. Even worse, different computer systems (PC, Mac, UNIX workstations) don’t even use the same 256 colors in their “color palettes,” so you couldn’t be sure what your color will be shifted to.
To avoid problems for older machines and different system color palettes, early Web designers usually limited their color choices to the 216 “web safe colors” which would display more or less the same on all systems. The web-safe colors use only the hex values 00, 33, 66, 99, CC, and FF when making color combinations. Of the examples shown earlier,
#FFEFD5 (PAPAYAWHIP) and #556B2F (DARKOLIVEGREEN) are not web-safe colors. They would get shifted to #FFFFCC (NOT PAPAYAWHIP) and #666633 (NOT DARKOLIVEGREEN) on older systems.

Below are some of the common color names and codes. With these colors, you can also use the color name. For example, in HTML tags and CSS that use color codes, you could use “black” instead of “#000000“.
