World's Lightest Colored Website
This is a CSS experiment to make the most extreme web page ever. Specifically, it demonstrates thoroughly the ways web browsers are capable of natively producing white.
CSS color methods:
There are various ways that CSS can assign color values. All are capable of producing white, the lightest color.
background-color: white;
/* The lightest color */
/* The lightest color */
background-color: #ffffff;
/* hex value */
/* hex value */
background-color: #fff;
/* short form, equates to #ffffff, not #f0f0f0 */
/* short form, equates to #ffffff, not #f0f0f0 */
background-color: rgb(255,255,255);
/* rgb values */
/* rgb values */
background-color: rgb(100%,100%,100%);
/* rgb percentage values */
/* rgb percentage values */
The two rgb formats will accept values higher than 255 or 100%, but the values will be trimmed back before interpreting on all but possibly some theoretical devices.
Images:
Web pages also produce color through images. Following are images in the three most ubiquitous image formats, colored the lightest color each are capable of representing (white).
