Copy the following code and save as unit
HTMLColorConversions.
This unit publishes two functions.
Color2HTML will translate a Delphi Color value into the HTML representation. If it finds a matching color name, this will be used, otherwise the Hex code will be returned.
HTML2Color will translate an HTML representation color representation into a Delphi TColor value. It will try to find a match W3C color code name.
The color codes are taken from the W3C home page, should be, hopefully, correct and interpreted by most modern browsers.
