The colors are in 2-byte chunks, as: RRGGBB (Red Green Blue.) The browser-safe numbers are 33, 66, 99, CC, and FF. However, since most people have their screens set for more than 256 colors nowadays, you can usually get away with any color that you want to use. If that's not good enough, there's a nice web-based color picker at: http://www.visibone.com/colorlab/ In about 16 different languages, too. Just run your mouse over the colors and read off the code. You can also find a freeware or shareware color program to download -- I seem to remember that there are several available. Try going to download.com or tucows.com and putting "color picker" in the search box. Regards Jim Keebaugh
