You can get color codes here
Then add this background rule to your body style in the stylesheet

Code:

body {
width:1000px;
margin:0 auto 0 auto;
background:#98FB98;
}

Replace the hex code 98FB98 with the hex code for the color you want.

The older way is still used, and that is to replace your opening <body> tag with this:

Code:

<body bgcolor=#000000">

and then just place the Hex code of your choice into it.
