Design Your Pages Using Inline Style : Background

Background
Design is, after all, a choice of colors for the background, headings or titles and font styles of text. A few attractive background images add additional appeal to the attention catching appearance of a web page.
In CSS, the five properties of background are:
Color
Image
Repeat
Attachment
Position
Background-Color
For choosing colors, you can refer to:
Color Codes
Recall the General Syntax mentioned in the Introduction:
<p style="property:value;”>YOUR TEXT HERE!</p>
Let us use the following examples:
<p style="background-color:#E6E6EE;">Your Text Here!</p>
Result:
Your Text Here!
<p style="background-color:#cbfed8 ;">Your Text Here!</p>
Result:
Your Text Here!
<p style="background-color:rgb(220,220,220);">Your Text Here!</p>
Result:
Your Text Here!
Note: Don't forget the "#" (Hash) symbol before the color code!
The other properties i.e., Image, Repeat, Attachment and Position would be explained in the advanced series.

Please let read the introduction page. You can come back and seek clarifications on your doubts and difficulties in understanding. These codes called CSS are used to design our pages more effectively. By the way, may I suggest to you to upload your photo! Jun 3rd 2011 13:16 |

Another great site to HTML colors is http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp. This is the site I refer to myself for my personal blog and websites I create on the side. Jun 6th 2011 20:01 |

'background-color' is a property and should be used as such i.e., no spelling mistake. The value can be anyone of a)green b)#00ff00 c)rgb(0,255,0). Don't combine. If there is mistake, default value is used. Try putting all and run an experiment to see what happens! Jul 4th 2011 21:06 |
Still puzzled figuring out codes to make it more understandable
