This JavaScript converts a hex code and tells you its name (ie: FFFFFF converts to white).
This code can be used for many differant types of applications.
Imagine having an online help, or a catalog with 1000's of items!
For this example, we used a library of colors. Simply enter a color into the textbox below
- depressing the 'submit' button will bring up an alert window giving the hex value of the
color (if it exists in the database). It will also bring up a small window with the
background as the color you requested.
Enter a hex value in the textbox. Do not include the "#" symbols and make sure the letter
values are in "CAPS". Hit submit and it will display the color's name in the box below.
Pressing 'view' will bring up a small window with the background as the color you requested.
