CSS Colours

Colours can be defined using the text equivalent example: “blue” “red” “DarkSalmon” “SpringGreen” and so on.   CSS colours can also be defined using a hexadecimal code; the hexadecimal code should always begin with the hash (#) symbol, followed by 6 characters made of both letters and numbers.
