A Color Button Control for extensions
A Color Button Control lets you add a color picker interface to your extensions. You instantiate a color button using the existing HTML form input
tag with the type
attribute of the control set to "mmcolorbutton'
, and then provide the name
and value
attributes accordingly. The name
attribute is the name of the color button. The value
attribute is the current color value, represented as either a hexadecimal string or as a color name.
Here are some examples of the mmcolorbutton
tag:
<input type="mmcolorbutton" name="colorbutton" value="#FF0000"> <input type="mmcolorbutton" name="colorbutton" value="teal">
A color button has one event, onChange
, which is triggered when the color is changed.
