HTMLFontElement: color property

Deprecated

Avoid using this feature in new projects. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.

The obsolete HTMLFontElement.color property is a string that reflects the color HTML attribute, containing either a named color or a color specified in the hexadecimal #RRGGBB format.

The format of the string must follow one of the following HTML microsyntaxes (see <color>):

Microsyntax Description Examples
Valid name color string nameOfColor (case insensitive) Green, green, GREEN
Valid hex color string #RRGGBB #008000
RGB using decimal values rgb(x x x) (x in 0-255 range) rgb(0 128 0)

Value

A string.

When set to the null value, that null value is converted to the empty string (""), so elt.color = null is equivalent to elt.color = "".

Examples

js
// Assumes there is <font id="f"> element in the HTML

const f = document.getElementById("f");
f.color = "green";
