I was just curious about colors so I built this page to show the ones that have names. The W3C organization defines a few that every browser should support. Netscape and Internet Explorer each have their own set of named colors. Below you will see the W3C colors with their RGB code values. If you are using a NetScape browser you will see the colors your browser recognizes by name. If you are using an Internet Explorer browser then you'll see the list supported by that browser. If the color name is supported by both Netscape and the Internet Explorer an asterisk (*) is shown after the color name.
Below that you will see color names generally recognized by Java applications.
The tables are generated from arrays of data using PHP.
