Color Names
This appendix provides the table of color names that are supported by most browsers.
It is important to note that only 16 color names are supported in the W3C HTML 4.0 standard (aqua, black, blue, fuchsia, gray, green, lime, maroon, navy, olive, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and yellow). If you have concerns about browser compatibility, or are planning to export a portlet, you should use the hexadecimal values rather than the color names.
To view the colors themselves, point your browser to www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/#html4 and locate the section documenting "SVG color keywords."
