    I know the basics of colours on the net with codes like #000000 and #FF0000 but can anyone explain what colours starting with 0x mean? Would I simply replace # with 0x (for example #FF0000 becomes 0xFF0000 or is it not as simple as that?</p>

    Thanks</p>

    Apparently

    0x is shorthand for hexadecimal.
