Purpose:
Give the user the ability to represent and mutate an HTML hexadecimal color as a JavaScript object.

Parameters:

Result:
Constructing a JXtension color in this way yields an object which contains the RGB color values for the specified hexadecimal color code.

Example #1:
The following will illustrate how to create a JavaScript (JXtension) color object from hexadecimal color codes:

// Randomize the order of the colors. var indices = [parseInt(Math.random() * 3)]; indices.push((indices[0] + parseInt(Math.random() * 2) + 1) % 3); indices.push(3 - indices[0] - indices[1]); // Get the cells below the text box. var tds = $("#tblEx1 TR:element(last) TD"); // Show red at a random spot. var hexCode = "F00"; var aColor = new Color(hexCode); $(tds[indices[0]]).setCSS("background-color", aColor); $(tds[indices[0]]).setCSS("color", aColor.getSafeColor()).setText(hexCode); // Show green at a random spot. hexCode = "#0f0"; aColor = new Color(hexCode); $(tds[indices[1]]).setCSS("background-color", aColor); $(tds[indices[1]]).setCSS("color", aColor.getSafeColor()).setText(hexCode); // Show blue at a random spot. hexCode = "#0000FF"; aColor = new Color(hexCode); $(tds[indices[2]]).setCSS("background-color", aColor); $(tds[indices[2]]).setCSS("color", aColor.getSafeColor()).setText(hexCode); // Show the message. alert("Notice how the three primary colors of light can be found in the cells b" + "elow the text box.");
