whoa... if you constantly scroll down... its pretty trippy stuff man

[RedRooster]

I was suppose to stick it when you first posted it, guess I forgot... Done now :) Thanks for that page!

[KingMan.EXE]

hahahahha i scolled down and almost went into a damn seizure:P

[The Game X]

LoL...this is the only thread of mine that's been stuck on these forums. I got a whole part of the site now for HTML stuff...even a cheat sheet.

or you could go to http://dtu.vze.com and click HTML

[rsnd]

hmm...i dont think its the complete list!

[Cacaw]

or you could just do it faster and easier by going here Mediagods (http://mediagods.com/tools/rgb2hex.html?59%2c107) your choice fast or slow

[rsnd]

or make a script to dump the html code for the complete color list!all from #000000 to #ffffff

[Teh Dragon]

that would take so long it would be silly

[Shaolin Buddha]

It won't take that long, the script would only have to loop 16581375 times.

[Teh Dragon]

OMG how did you know that? and how would such a thing be made???

[Shaolin Buddha]

Didn't rsnd said "script"? It can be done in a matter of minutes if your computer is fast enough.

You'd need the stack to be kept in check or allow for overstacking. 16 miliion recurses of any mathimatical alogorithm (as simple as 2 + 2) can be resource taxing. But still it'd bee simple to write and execute.

Anyway, the site's page is down. Can't see the precious hex codes. v__v

[RedRooster]

Just bumping it so it doesn't get deleted in the purge at the end of the week. Please ignore me :)

I know it's sticky, but I still need to bump it!

[CrazyWierdChic]

how do you get a pic signature?

It would likely freeze, and stay frozen no matter how long you wait. I've tried before.

However, seeing as how this topic has had no link since I first checked it ages ago, I made this for you guys:

To create these so-called HTML hex color codes, you don't need a script, or anything for that matter, except some common sense. If you pick apart an HTML color code, for example #FFFFFF you'll see that it's exactly 6 letters long. Each group of two represents a byte, like so: FF FF FF
If anyone knows the first thing about computers, the basic unit of memory is the Byte, which is made up of a combination of 8 ones and zeros. This combonation is part of an alternate numerical system called binary. In binary, 00000000 can range all the way up to 11111111 which is equal (in decimal) to the value 255. 100000000 would be 256, so on. In hexidecimal, commonly shortened to "hex", this is nothing more then a base-16 counting system, much like our base-10 counting system. It spans from 0, to 9, to A, to F. Quite convieniently, 0x10 times 0x10 would equal 0x100 (or 256 in decimal). Minus one, would equal 0xFF which is what would be equal to the bit of that color code. Bah. Enough of my rambling. Anotherwords, each byte in that value would equal one color, Red, Green, or Blue. So anotherwords, 256 x 256 x 256 would equal 0xFFFFFF colors, or in decimal, 16777216 possible color combinations. It's quite easy to parse this, for example, (because of windows systems' endian-ness) so it would be in the order of B, G, and R. #FF 50 10 would mean there is FF value of blue, 50 value of green, and 10 value of red. As you can imagine, you really could play around with these combinations as much as you'd like-- but don't forget about what you've learned in school about mixing colors. The same applies here.
