CSS color values highlighting - low contrast sometimes

Post by FataL »

Some color values have bad readability due to low contrast between foreground and background colors. Color Contrast Analyser included in TopStyle 5 proves my observations:

Needs a bit more tweaking. Try:
color: Yellow
There should be black text used instead of white.
