Color Schemes, ugly or not

[EthanStyle]

color schemes on a site are probably the hardest thing to do right.
even if you know which colors go together you still have to orgainize
them correctly. is it better to have a light color surrounded by a
dark color or vise versa. it is good to sometimes have contrasting
colors that just don't go.

when building html tables lately i've been using the black border and
having a grey inside. in the past i've used a black inside with white
text but stopped that because i read that some printers just don't
print that out since the text is white.

does anyone know if that is still a problem with printing or if there
is an html command to make all text print in black even if it is a
different color on the page.

thanks,

use a stylesheet for print.

Use CSS, something like

@media print
{

*
{
color : black !important;
background : white !important;
}

a[href]
{
text-decoration : underline !important;
}

img[alt]:before
{
color : darkgray !important;
content : attr(alt);
}

}
