BBCode Color Tag: Valid Color Names
The Bulletin Board Code (BBCode) Color tag is used to change the color of the text contained within its tags. i.e. [color=red].....[/color] . Both HTML color names and hexadecimal color values are supported by the Color Tag.
Flatpress Blog Engine Color tag supports all known 147 HTML color names. However, only the original 16 color names are considered valid when you validate your web page using a HTML or CCS validation tool. You can use the color name for the remaining 131 colors, it is just a recommendation to use their HEX values instead.
