Template:Colour

Info

Set the colour of the text explicitly (not recommended usually). The template replaces the HTML tag <font color=...>...</font>, using the standardized info box frame colours for consistency.

Issue

The frame colours though nice are simply to light, i.e. too much pastel. Will need to fix this!

Old code: <span style="color:#{{CatWcolFrame|{{{1}}}}};">{{{2}}}</span>

Current Version

The present version simply accepts valid HTML colour names e.g. pink, and colour codes e.g. #FF8000 for orange.

Syntax

{{colour|<colour>|<text>}}

<colour>  =  yellow   -   Just a few of the valid colour names.
             red
             green
             blue
             grey 
             purple (default)
             (For a complete list of valid colour names see the Template:CatWcolFrame template.)

  <text>  =  The text you would like to colour.
