The CSS color property is used for setting the color (more specifically, the foreground color) of elements. The color property can be used in conjunction with the backgound-color property to achieve the desired effect.

Choose your colors quickly with the HTML color picker.

Syntax:	color: <value>
Possible Values:	auto <color>. This value can be expressed as one of the following: keyword (for example, 'red') RGB value - hexadecimal notation (for example #ff0000) RGB value - functional notation (for example rgb(255,000,000) or rgb(100%,0%,0%)) inherit
Initial Value:	Depends on the user agent. For example, your browser sets its own default colors for different elements.
Applies to:	All elements
Inherited:	Yes
Media:	Visual
Example:	`color: red; color: #ff0000; color: rgb(255,0,0); color: rgb(100%,0%,0%);` (These all acheive the same result)
Try it yourself!	<style type="text/css"> h2 { color:olive; } p.question { color: rgb(30%,25%,60%) } p.answer { color:#663300; } </style> <h2>CSS color property example</h2> <p class="question">Is this OK? Should I put a bit more blue in there???</p> <p class="answer">Yeah, just a little bit. Actually, no, leave it - I like it just the way it is!</p>
