    Learn CSS, Manipulating Colors - CSS Comments


    (Page 5 of 5 )

    Actually the examples we discuss here are simple, but in your website things will get complicated. We will study real-world examples later in the series. You need a way to remember why you have used a coloring technique over others. You can use CSS Comments syntax to comment in your code and add notes. It's a very useful thing to do because maybe you will come back after 2 years to update your style sheet, and you will need your comments to know what you have done. I have commented the above colors example as following

    body
    {
      font-family: Tahoma;
    }
    /* This is the red color RGB value */
    .TheRed
    {
      color: rgb(100%,0%,0%);
    }
    /* This is the green color RGB value */
    .TheGreen
    {
      color: rgb(0%,100%,0%);
    }
    /* This is the blue color RGB value */
    .TheBlue
    {
      color: rgb(0%,0%,100%);
    }
    /* This is the yellow color RGB value */
    .TheYellow
    {
      color: rgb(100%,100%,0%);
    }
    /* This is the cyan color RGB value */
    .TheCyan
    {
      color: rgb(0%,100%,100%);
    }
    /* This is the magenta color RGB value */
    .TheMagenta
    {
      color: rgb(100%,0%,100%);
    }
    /* This is the black color RGB value */
    .TheBlack
    {
      color: rgb(0%,0%,0%);
    }
