Colour reference chart

When I was busy typing in my 6 digit hex colour numbers and testing them to see if they worked, I remembered what I used do before I started using them. I used colour names! What I didn't know was how many different colour names there were. So I looked up a reference guide, and made this page for people to refer to. I won't guarantee they'll work in any browser other than Netscape or Internet Explorer, but they shouldn't be too incompatible. The end of 6 digit hex codes is not yet upon us, but I hope that this page makes it easier for you. Print it and keep it.
(this text is coloured black, background colour is white or black as necessary)
It seems that on certain browsers, when you print this page none of the black table cell backgrounds prints out. This should not affect the colour printed. Obviously, if you have a black & white printer, you're not going very far.
