Optional Tags

BGCOLOR=, TEXTCOLOR=, STRIPECOLOR=

'BGCOLOR=', 'TEXTCOLOR=', and 'STRIPECOLOR=' are similar to the HTML color tags. These tags accept a hexadecimal color value to determine the color of the background, text, and alternating list item stripes. These tags may be used independently or in any combination. The default value for each is:

  • BGCOLOR = FFFFFF (white)
  • TEXTCOLOR = 000000 (black)
  • STRIPECOLOR = FFFFEE (light yellow)

To make the background and stripe color transparent, enter the value of no. For example, BGCOLOR=no, STRIPECOLOR=no. This allows the page background color or image to show through.
