Quinnie11 Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 In the style sheet for my site I use the colour #404040 but when I put 40,40,40 rgb value into paintshop pro the colours dont match. Any ideas?Sorted it now just put #404040 into the html code bit of paintshop pro's pallette. Turns out the colours actually 64,64,64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anders Moen Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Haha! The RGB colors isn't those 6 numbers/letters in the (X)HTML/CSS code. Well, congratulations anyway ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should use one or the other, preferably do not mix, just save confusion.You can actually use RGB, hash or %age values.Best wishesJustin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesh Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Just to throw in some more information - the "hash" code is in hexadecimal (values ranging from 00 to FF) whereas the RGB values are in decimal (values ranging from 0 to 255). They use different numerical systems.Check out the wikipedia article if you're interested: http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
