function hexToRgb(str) { 
    if ( /^#([0-9a-f]{3}|[0-9a-f]{6})$/ig.test(str) ) { 
        var hex = str.substr(1);
        hex = hex.length == 3 ? hex.replace(/(.)/g, '$1$1') : hex;
        var rgb = parseInt(hex, 16);               
        return 'rgb(' + [(rgb >> 16) & 255, (rgb >> 8) & 255, rgb & 255].join(',') + ')';
    } 

    return false; 
}

function rgbToHex(red, green, blue) {
    var out = '#';

    for (var i = 0; i < 3; ++i) {
        var n = typeof arguments[i] == 'number' ? arguments[i] : parseInt(arguments[i]);

        if (isNaN(n) || n < 0 || n > 255) {
            return false;
        }

        out += (n < 16 ? '0' : '') + n.toString(16);
    }
    return out
