Template:Colors/doc

Usage
 

Sets foreground and background colors of a block of inline text. Colors can be specified by name, or (RGB hex triplet) in #DDDDDD format.

Unless in the case of personal use on a user page, use this template with great caution:


 * A poor contrast may make the text difficult or impossible to read.
 * The contrast can be experienced as even poorer in the case of color blindness.
 * Links have a color according to user settings; they become invisible if this color is equal to the background color.
