I have recently downloaded mColorPicker.js from here
However, I am running into some issue with this –
When user enters an invalid color value like ‘#454545xxxx’ in the color box, I get a js error – Invalid Property value in IE7 (working fine in Firefox)
error is coming in
jquery-1.4.2.min.js,
line 116 – if(e)f[b]=d
when d = "#454545xxxx"
Also, ColorPicker image is hidden for this textbox.
Any ideas?
The reason this is happening is that the plugin is trying to set the value of the background colour to exactly what the user typed, without doing any validation checking to make sure it is a valid colour. The plugin calls the jQuery
.css()method to do this, which is why the error is occurring inside jquery-1.4.2.min.js.If you are able to modify the plugin code, you can then add checks to make sure the value entered is a valid colour before proceeding.
You might also suggest adding this feature to the plugin author, or, if you get it working successfully, submitting your updated code to them so they can benefit from your work.
I had a quick look, but I don’t have the time to properly make the necessary changes to the plugin to ensure it correctly validates the colour is valid in all the right places. Good luck!
