1.
Is there a list of all the colors I can use for my page backgrounds,
text and links?
Answer:
There is a chart of all of the colors Netscape uses at http://www.ou.edu/research/electron/internet/bgcolors.shtml.
These should work for most browsers, (i.e., Internet Explorer,
AOL, ...)
... or just
pick the color code here
Includes hexadecimal and RGB code, useful for HTML coding
and/or doing graphics
- activate Javascript to see colors and code -

How do I change the colors for my backgrounds, text and links?
Answer 1:
If you don't know html, any editor you are using should have something
called page properties or something like that. When you go to
that area you will be able to select colors for backgrounds, text
and links individually and can make them any color you want. A
color selection grid will come up in each area for you to choose
a color.

Answer 2:
The settings for BGCOLOR, TEXT, LINK, ALINK, and VLINK commands
are set in the BODY statement of your HTML document. The colors
can be given as the color name or as the hexadecimal (six digit)
code. Here is an example of a BODY statement using the color names:
<BODY
BGCOLOR="white" TEXT="black" LINK="blue"
ALINK="purple" VLINK="purple">
BGCOLOR
= the background color of your page
TEXT = the color of the text of your web page
LINK = the color of the links on your page
ALINK = the color of your links as they are being clicked
VLINK = the color of your links after they have been clicked.
Here is the same statement as above in hexadecimal:
<BODY BGCOLOR="#808080" TEXT="#000000"
LINK="#0000FF" ALINK="#FF0000" VLINK="#FF00FF">
Either of
the body statements above are the same as just using the BODY
tag by itself. These colors are the default colors for most browsers.

How can I remove the underline of a textlink?
Answer:
Very easy. You can use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). Here is the
code you simply have to insert into the head of your document:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
a:link { color: #3333FF; text-decoration: none}
-->
</style>
</head>
Note: this
only works in IE or Netscape 6 - Not in Netscape 4.* and below!!!

How can I make the color of a text link change when I move over
it with the mouse?
Answer:
This is can be made by using CSS Styles (Cascading Style Sheets).
Here is the code that has to be inserted into the head of your
document. You can change the colors to match your website.
<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
a:link { color: #3333FF; text-decoration: none}
a:hover { color: #FF3333; text-decoration: none}
a:active { color: #009933; text-decoration: none}
a:visited { color: #FF9933; text-decoration: none}
-->
</style>
</head>
Note: this
only works in IE or Netscape 6 - Not in Netscape 4.* and below!!!
Other styles to play with, just replace none with either overline,
underline or line-through. text-decoration: overline => nive mouse-over
effect. Gives your textlink an overline instead of an underline.
Used for hover. text-decoration: line-through => funny for a visited
link.

How can I change the color of the scrollbars in my browserwindow?
Answer:
Again you can use CSS for this. Insert the following code into
the head of your document. Colors can be changed to match your
document colors.
<style
type="text/css">
<!--
body { scrollbar-face-color: #350149; scrollbar-shadow-color:
#9900CC; scrollbar-highlight-color: #66FFFF; scrollbar-3dlight-color:
#CC99FF; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: black; scrollbar-track-color:
#350149; scrollbar-arrow-color: #66FFFF} //-->
</style>
Note: this
works in IE and Netscape 4 - not in Netscape 6 because this browser
is using skins.
