Head First HTML with CSS

Add color to your text with the color property.
You can change your text color with the color property. To do that, it
helps to know a little about Web colors, and we’ll take you through all the
ins and outs of color, including the mysterious color “hex codes.”
body {
color: silver;
}
Affect the weight of your fonts with the font-weight property.
Why settle for boring, average fonts when you can give them some extra
weight when needed? Or, are your fonts looking too heavy? Slim them down
to a normal weight. All this is easily done with the font-weight property.
body {
font-weight: bold;
}
Add even more style to your text with the text-decoration property.
Using the text-decoration property you can decorate your text with
decorations including overlines, underlines, and line-throughs. And if you didn’t
get enough of blinking text on the Web in the 1990s, the designers of CSS have
even included a blink value for text-decoration (although thankfully they
don’t require browsers to implement it).
body {
text-decoration: underline;
}
