Thanks, but yeah, the purpose is to display the hex #, the full 6
digits, to the user as #006699. thanks though!
The function I included at the bottom should do that. I modified it to
pad the output with a pound sign and leading zeroes.
//--------------------------
function decimalToHex(decVal:Number):String {
var digits:String = "012345689ABCDEF";
var returnStr:String = "";
while (decVal) {
returnStr += digits.substr(decVal & 15 -1, 1);
decVal >>= 4;
}
return "#" + ("000000" + returnStr).substr(-6,6);
}
trace(decimalToHex(65535));
// outputs "#00FFFF"
//--------------------------
