thank you fatscape/boozilla developers: due to your urges for new features nobody needs and moreover everybody will hate, i have to use a kilo of code just to convert bloody rgb triples into hex strings. **** you, too!

grrrr...

to understand the problem click on the coloured box:

while most browsers return "#ffcc00" at least netscape 6.2, mozilla 0.9 and even chimera 0.4 return "rgb(255,204,0)" – which actually is the same color but not the same value and least of all the color that was set in the code!
