CSS » Text


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


With CSS, a color is most often specified by:
  • a HEX value - like "#ff0000"
  • an RGB value - like "rgb(255,0,0)"
  • a color name - like "red"

» EXAMPLE:


<html>
<head>
<style>
h1 {
color: blue;
}
h3 {
color: #00CC33;
}
p {
color: rgb(255,0,0);
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is blue heading.</h1>
<h3>This is green heading.</h3>
<p>This is red paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>


» Result:


This is blue heading.

This is green heading.

This is red paragraph.




You can also set one color to all text in Your page. You have to define body color.


» EXAMPLE:


<html>

<head>
<style>
body {
color: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is blue heading.</h1>
<h3>This is green heading.</h3>
<p>This is red paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>



» Result:



This is blue heading.

This is green heading.

This is red paragraph.





Text Alignment

The text-align property is used to set the horizontal alignment of a text.
Text can be centered, or aligned to the left or right, or justified.
When text-align is set to "justify", each line is stretched so that every line has equal width, and the left and right margins are straight.
Try to resize the browser window to see how the value "justify" works.


» EXAMPLE:


<html>

<head>
<style>
h1 {
text-align: center;
}
#demo {
text-align: right;
}
p.par {
text-align: justify;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is blue heading.</h1>
<h3 id="demo">This is green heading.</h3>
<p class="par">Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines in the production and maintenance of websites. The different areas of web design include web graphic design; interface design; authoring, including standardised code and proprietary software; user experience design; and search engine optimization. </p>
</body>
</html>
