What is the default color of the border around input fields in a form?
It's a shade of blue ... but can't figure out it's Hex #

Thanks in advance.


EDIT: I got it awfully darn close using: #6699CC
#color #default

    I think it's black. Or a dark shade of gray.

    Dunno. If you expand the size of the border, it becomes 2 shades of gray. Sorry I can't help.

      If you want the exact color then take a screen shot then go into a photo editor that has a eye drop tool like photoshop and paste it and it will tell you the exact #XXXXXX.

      Links by default are blue and the border default should be black.

        I agree, that's the best way to figure it out...

    The best color tool I've ever used is color Cop, a small download here.
    Color Cop - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com

    I did try out the FF one after a few excited reviews here but it can only give you info about colors in your browser window, a serious downer compared to Color Cop.

    You can take the point of the dropper to anything on your desktop and it will give you the hexadecimal code for it, or other codes if you want them. Have been using it for years.

    Edit: It does have a small magnified window that lets you pick out the color on a single pixel.

      Figure two expands the implicit step of these methods and shows the transformation between the original scene tristimulus values into the target monitor tristimulus values. Since these two viewing conditions are different, an implicit compensation is made to account for these differences (i.e. flare and ambient luminance). In order to provide an independent monitor reference color space, the monitor compensation methods must be extracted from this confounded compensation. This is precisely the goal of the sRGB color space.
