RGB to hex and hex to RGB

Question

How to convert colors in RGB format to hex format and vice versa?

For example, convert \'#0080C0\' to (0, 128, 192).

Answer 1

// Ignoring hsl notation, color values are commonly expressed as names, rgb, rgba or hex-

// Hex can be 3 values or 6.

// Rgb can be percentages as well as integer values.

// Best to account for all of these formats, at least.

String.prototype.padZero= function(len, c){
    var s= this, c= c || "0", len= len || 2;
    while(s.length < len) s= c + s;
