Different Worlds: An Introduction to HTML

Appendix B: Colour Chart

The following table shows the 216 "browser safe" colours which will be displayed by most browsers without any dithering or dot patterns. These are the colours to use if you are designing for users whose monitors are set to display 256 colours. The values shown in the table are the RGB values for each colour.

You can either save this page, or download the two GIF files (links are given after this table) which show these colours.
