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)"
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!
