Convert rgb strings to hex in Javascript

Question

I am using the TweenMax JS library with the ColorPropsPlugin which will tween color values which are specified in many formats, the problem I have is that the result is always i

Answer 1

The following is adapted from a Colour class I wrote and use but may be overkill for your needs since it handles percentages and negative numbers.

Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/5ryxx/1/

Code:

function componentFromStr(numStr, percent) {
    var num = Math.max(0, parseInt(numStr, 10));
    return percent ?
        Math.floor(255 * Math.min(100, num) / 100) : Math.min(255, num);
}

function rgbToHex(rgb) {
    var rgbRegex = /^rgb\(\s*(-?\d+)(%?)\s*,\s*(-?\d+)(%?)\s*,\s*(-?\d+)(%?)\s*\)$/;
    var result, r, g, b, hex = "";
    if ( (result = rgbRegex.exec(rgb)) ) {
        r = componentFromStr(result[1], result[2]);
        g = componentFromStr(result[3], result[4]);
        b = componentFromStr(result[5], result[6]);

        hex = "0x" + (0x1000000 + (r << 16) + (g << 8) + b).toString(16).slice(1);
    }
    return hex;
}
