Standards in Space

Life on Planet Earth:
"On this page you will find a table of color names that are supported by newer versions of both Netscape and Internet Explorer."

Life in Outer Space:
"Note: Color names are not supported by the W3C standards. If you want to write correct CSS you should use the Color HEX values."

Huh. I didn't know that color names weren't supported by W3C standards. Why? Because most, if not all (graphical) browsers support using color names. (I.e. color: black; as an equivalent to color: #000000;)

Another crisis of conscience in the web design world. ::wink::
