Styling properties

CSS has many styling properties, including text properties (dealing with fonts and character styles), colours and backgrounds, margins, and whitespace around elements, and general object type classifications.

Colours

Wherever colours are allowed, the choice is from 'aqua', 'black', 'blue', 'fuchsia', 'gray', 'green', 'lime', 'maroon', 'navy', 'olive', 'purple', 'red', 'silver', 'teal', 'white' and 'yellow'.
