Does anyone know a site which gives a list of the RGB values , for all colors? I need to make a color table for my program. ---

[http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/colors/colors.asp](http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/colors/colors.asp) I’m making a more comprehensive one myself: 0 0 0 Black 1 1 1 Really, really, really dark gray 2 2 2 Really, really dark gray 3 3 3 Really dark gray 4 4 4 Dark, dark gray 5 5 5 Medium dark gray 6 6 6 Satan grey ---

All colors? What do you mean? Would be a pretty big list. Try this [search](http://www.google.com/search?q=additive+color+mixing&sourceid=opera&num=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8) . For starters: > ```auto > > ``` > R G B result > 1.0 0.0 0.0 red, duh > 0.0 1.0 0.0 green, duh > 0.0 0.0 1.0 blue, duh > 1.0 1.0 0.0 yellow > 1.0 0.0 1.0 purple > 0.0 1.0 1.0 cyan > 1.0 1.0 1.0 white > > 1.0 0.5 0.0 orange > 0.5 1.0 0.0 greenish yellow > … > 0.5 1.0 0.5 light green > 0.0 0.5 0.0 dark green > … > > ```auto > > ``` The list is virtually endless. ---

Sorry, when I said “all”, I just meant a list with a lot of colours, all listed with RGB values ---

Netscape has this chart of 216 browser safe colours. I couldn’t find it at netscape’s site but [this](http://www.brobstsystems.com/colors.htm) is just as good. [This message has been edited by Furrage (edited 03-28-2002).] ---

You could try [www.povray.org,](http://www.povray.org,) POVRay has an option for predefined color’s, I am not sure how large the list is. But the primary colors should all be there, and in a C like code.
