<p>according to W3Schools this seems to be correct.</p> <ul> <li>darkgray is #A9A9A9</li> <li>gray is #808080</li> <li>dimgray is #696969</li> </ul>

Why CSS dark grey is lighter then the original grey [duplicate]

Is this some kind of bug or they just made it wrong?

Shouldn't the dark gray be DARKER then the default grey?

<div class="lightgrey">Light Grey</div>
<div class="grey">Grey</div>
<div class="darkgrey">Dark Grey</div>

.lightgrey {background: lightgrey}
.grey {background: grey}
.darkgrey {background: darkgrey}
