Red Font Color

2 Ways to Do Red Font Color

Some people think of their Web sites as works of art. It's their way of letting out their creative side. Others write their pages to get a point across. A great way of doing both these things is by using colors.

Colors can be lots of fun. You can make every paragraph a different color, or even every word. The first thing you will need to know is the code for the color that you want to use. Then you need to know the code to add the color.

Would you like to make your text red? You can do that by using this code:

<font color="red">This text is red.</font>

OR

<font color="ff0000">This is also red.</font>

Notice that you must close the <font> tag with </font>, otherwise the text after it will also be red.
