Syntax
bgcolor="colorname/#hexvalue"
Description
The
bgcolor attribute is used to set a background color
on the marquee.
Example
<marquee bgcolor="red">Danger! Danger!</marquee>
Value
This attribute
takes as its value a recognized color name (for example,
"blue" or "red"), or a value
specified in hexadecimal notation (such as "#003366").
Note that it’s not possible to use shorthand hexadecimal values
in HTML as you can in CSS—for example, you can’t express
"#cceeff" as
"#cef".
