Color Names

When you're defining colors for elements on your webpages, you can use the hex triplets, the three hexadecimal values for red, green and blue everyone is so familiar with, or you can use any of a number of predefined words for certain colors. Here then is a table with the colornames and their equivalent hex triplet value.
