The current color is displayed in a rectangle at the left, along with sample text in black and white to show the contrast that would result for those color combinations.  The value required to display the current color is shown in the box labeled HTML Code.  The drop-down list holds a history list of recently used color codes.  You can type an HTML color value  directly into the HTML Code combobox, if you wish.

 

The Use Chart button can be used to summon the standard Windows color dialog so that a selection can be made from a color palette.  The Insert Code button is used to insert the HTML Code into the current text file.
