CSS Text


CSS has a lot of properties for formatting text.


text formatting
This text is styled with some of the text formatting properties. The heading uses the text-align, text-transform, and color properties.
The paragraph is indented, aligned, and the space between characters is specified. The underline is removed from this colored

Text Color
The color property is used to set the color of the text.
The color is specified by:

a color name - like "red"
a HEX value - like "#ff0000"
an RGB value - like "rgb(255,0,0)"

Look at CSS Color Values for a complete list of possible color values.
The default text color for a page is defined in the body selector.

Example

body {  color: blue;}
h1 {  color: green;}

Text Color and Background Color
In this example, we define both the background-color property and the color property:

Example

body {  background-color: lightgrey;  color: blue;}
h1 {  background-color: black;  color: white;}
div {  background-color: blue;  color: white;}

Important: High contrast is very important for people with
vision problems. So, always ensure that the contrast
between the text color and the background color (or background image) is good!
