In the light of the forthcoming release of Sitefinity 3, the telerik UX team decided to update our Content Management System with a brand-new color picker control. Here is a list of its main features so far:
- Standards-compliant xhtml1.1 css color picker;
- Lightweight and semantic, rendering divs and lists;
- Browser-friendly (tested with IE6, IE7, Opera 8, Opera 9 and Mozilla Firefox 2);
- Choose from 48-color web-safe palette;
- Multiple color-pickers on one page;
- Ability to set custom hexadecimal and named color values;
- Onload, onkeyup and onblur input value validator with a friendly error handling achieved via try and catch(error);
- Beginner (users are not allowed to enter/edit custom colors, and the input field is hidden) and Advanced operation modes (users can enter/edit custom colors).
- No Color support;
- Onblur hexadecimal value validator, adding '#' before the manually entered value if missing;
