19 Aug 00 - 09:16 AM (#280709) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: CarolC Roger in Sheffield, Believe it or not, those are my failures. I decided to give it a rest for a while before continuing. Hesperis gave me the codes, but since, in this case we are working with light, rather than pigment, trying to figure it all out was making my brain hurt. This is what she told me:
"Color is defined by Red, Green, and Blue values, in this order: 00 00 00, Good luck, Carol |

19 Aug 00 - 09:22 AM (#280711) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: CarolC Roger, I made a mistake on the Red. It should read "#FF 00 00". |

And as always, thank you Joe, and Pene, and persons unknown, for being the silent ones behind our screens, who do the cyber leg work and the troubleshooting, and tighten those virtual nuts and bolts.

22 Aug 00 - 02:02 PM (#282536) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: Brendy Just for clarification, Pene. Do you mean that 'p' should not be used at all in posting lyrics, like for instance, when separating verses? What difficulties do you come up with when 'harvesting' them? (great term!) What other practices would you suggest we adhere to to make the job a bit easier for you? B. |

22 Aug 00 - 04:26 PM (#282647) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: Pene Azul Brendy, I'm not a harvester myself, but according to Joe, you should not use the <p>, but use <br><br> instead.

23 Aug 00 - 12:51 AM (#283025) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: Brendy Yeah, I saw that, Pene. I was more wondering about the - br - br - vs - p - thing, though. And of course, any other things that might be un forseen. At least I know, now. Any time I've posted lyrics, I've normally used - p -. Those days are over. *BG* B. |

Wrong. First, it's not & but # for the color codes, second, as Joe already said, it's called hex code as abbreviation of hexadecimal code. In HTML, you always use 6 digits, but in CSS, there are situations where you use 3 digits only (and it is still called hex code). e.g: <span style="background-color:#fed; color:#930; border-width:3px; border-style:solid; border-color:#f9f #9ff #369 #6fc;">some funny colors</span> which looks like some funny colors (when there are only three hex digits, the value is interpreted as if each digit had been written twice: #fed ==> #ffeedd, #930 ==> #993300, #f9f ==> #ff99ff, #9ff ==> #99ffff, #369 ==> #336699, #6fc ==> #66ffcc ...) |

21 Nov 06 - 08:16 PM (#1890358) Subject: RE: html practice thread 1/2000 From: Linda Goodman Zebooker The Hex code colors website that Jeri mentioned on 23 Aug 05 - 10:09 PM came in real handy today. I saw this thread on November 12, and I wrote down and saved her blue clicky. Today, as is one of my duties, I was editing my Reform Jewish Regional Office's (in Washington DC) website. Our organization's North American Headquarters in New York City has given us an easy-to-use website editor package, but they have also imposed some pretty restrictive "style" rules. We my use ONLY Arial, for example, no graphics in the background, and a 180-color pallette selection box for type or background colors. We aren't really supposed to use any color backgrounds. But in the announcement I was making for one of the upcoming classes we administer, I really wanted something to set off the text. It's a marriage-preparation class (you can quitcher giggling, now) and our "signature" color for the class's flyers, etc. is pink. Pink's not even remotely one of the colors in our official pallette, but in the editor's dialog box, as well as a place to select a preset color, there's also a place to type. Aha!, I thought. I went to the website Jeri gave, found pink was FFC0CB, typed it in the box, and, voila...an appropriately sappy shade of pink appeared behind my text. We can edit our site's html, but I wouldn't have known how to figure it out. No doubt our web-police will find my color one of these days and delete it, but meantime, it's fun to have up there. THANKS MUDCAT! (& Jeri) --Linda Goodman |
