Thanks for the quick reply Frederick,

Hmm, List_of_colors does exist, and I got the basic results via this  
query on dbpedia's endpoint:

SELECT * WHERE {<http://dbpedia.org/resource/List_of_colors> ?p ?o}

Please try this link: http://tinyurl.com/5c3qx2

Can you check and see if that works? This list has a lot more colors  
and corresponding hex values and is the reason why I'm querying it. I  
just don't understand how I'll get the separated names and hex values  
to come together.

Thanks also for the example you gave; that's a great way to get the  
names but due to the inconsistencies of the wikipedia content there's  
not too many colors that match the query. However I'll see how I can  
work with your example on the above resource.

If anyone has a solution to the same question, i.e. getting names+hex  
values from the List_of_colors resource, I will be eternally grateful!



Cheers,
Andrew
