| abstract | - The background-color property is used in CSS and some special HTML tags to create a background color of a particular object. The overall effect without any borders or curved edges will be like highlighted text. You can customize the background-color property with the <a href="/mediawiki/Border-radius" title="Border-radius">border-radius</a> and <a href="/mediawiki/-moz-border-radius" title="-moz-border-radius">-moz-border-radius</a> properties. To apply this in the HTML document, use: See the bg That will make this: See the bg. The <a href="/mediawiki/Color" title="Color">color</a> property is used to specify the color of the text. Notice how the background color only wraps around the text, leaving no extra <a href="/mediawiki/Padding" title="Padding">padding</a>. To apply this in a CSS document, use this on any particular element you want, like the h1 element: h1 { background-color:white; color:black; } Any color will work, as well as HTML color codes (#000000, #666666, #999999, #CCCCCC, etc).
