Hi all,
looking for general thoughts here as i'm finding it difficult to prove / disprove this...
Does colour coding on a website (such as colourcoding the nav) work?

The reson being is that i'm looking to completely overhaul a site that has colour coding for its navigation bar... and i'm not convinced that it has any real benefit (i.e. i want to get rid of it!).

Does anyone have any links to research, and / or honest thoughts about this?

Over to you...

Hello kstaplet,
Welcome to Webmasterworld. 24/7 a great place to be.

There are huge difference between the way display devices display colors and the way any particular person see colors. Using color only will be a problem. Look for a solution that is color independant.
