With the predominance of 24-bit displays, the use of the full 16.7 million colors of the HTML RGB color code no longer poses problems for most viewers. The sRGB color space (a device-independent color space [23]) for HTML was formally adopted as an Internet standard in HTML 3.2, [24] [25] though it had been in use for some time before that.
In computing, on the X Window System, X11 color names are represented in a simple text file, which maps certain strings to RGB color values. It was traditionally shipped with every X11 installation, hence the name, and is usually located in <X11root> /lib/X11/rgb.txt. The web colors list is descended from it but differs for certain color names.

128. orange (255, 128, 0) 255. 255. yellow (255, 255, 0) Shades are created by multiplying the intensity of each primary color by 1 minus the shade factor, in the range 0 to 1. A shade factor of 0 does nothing to the hue, a shade factor of 1 produces black: new intensity = current intensity * (1 – shade factor)
The method used for selecting the colours for various top-level pages, e.g. Main Page, Community Portal, Contents, and Help:Contents. The 3 colours are generated using the HSV colour space, then translated into RGB. Note: for layouts with no spacing between borders, use the darker border colour.
