HTML 3.2 Extensions

BGCOLOR="#rrggbb": Sets the background color to the specified RGB color value, where RR GG and BB are the hexadecimal color codes for the Red, Green and Blue levels, ranging from 0 to 255 -- that is, 00 to FF. The color "000000" is black, while "FFFFFF" is white. If there is also a background image, the BGCOLOR is used as the color underneath the background image -- if the background image is transparent, this is the color that shows through.

Example: <BODY BGCOLOR="#00FFFF">
TEXT="#rrggbb": Sets the default text color to the specified RGB color value.

Example: <BODY TEXT="#FF00FF">
LINK="#rrggbb": Sets the default text color of hypertext anchors to the specified RGB color value.

Example: <BODY LINK="#AAAA00">
VLINK="#rrggbb": Sets the default text color of visited hypertext links to the specified RGB color value.

Example: <BODY VLINK="#FFFFFF">

Most browsers also support special color names (white, blue, etc.).

Here's an example document:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> Body Attribute Examples </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BACKGROUND="anotherimage.gif" BGCOLOR="#FF0000" 
LINK="#00FF00" VLINK="#FFFF00" TEXT="blue"> 

In this example, 
     * background image is anotherimage.gif,
     * the background color (bgcolor) is red (#FF0000),
     * links in the document are green (#00FF00),
     * visited links are yellow (#FFFF00),
     * regular text is blue (blue).
</BODY>
