Fonts are the kinds
of letters - that is, the text - you can use on your Web page. You may have
seen fonts in other computer programs, with names like "Helvetica" and "Times
New Roman."
To color the words on
your whole page, put the font colors inside the HTML page's <body> tag.
It works like this:
If you type:
<body text=lime link=red vlink=black alink=violet>
You will
get a really hard to read, but nicely colored page, with lime green text and
red links that turn black when you click on them, and violet after you've followed them.
Now, what if you only
want to color a single word? Well, lucky for you (if not the rest of us), font
tags let you do it. If you write in your HTML file:
<font color=green>Green</font> with envy.
You'll get:
Green with envy. |
