Changing Font Color

When indicating the color, you can either use the color name (i.e. "red", "blue", etc.) OR you can refer to a hex value for the color (this just gives you more options).

Click here to view a hex code table... scroll down a little to see the HTML color names and codes.

IMPORTANT POINT...
Each browser is different and some students will not have certain fonts loaded on their computer. It's a good idea, when changing font type, to stick to "typical" fonts (i.e. Times New Roman, Arial, Garamond, Courier, Verdana, etc.)
