HTML

<div id='colourPicker'></div>

JS

$('#colourPicker').ColorPicker({
  onChange: function(hsb, hex, rgb){
    $("#full").css("background-color", '#' + hex);
  }
});

Answer 1

It is stored in the hex argument included in the onchange event. The one you are already using.

$('#colourPicker').ColorPicker({
    onChange: function(hsb, hex, rgb) {

        // communicate with server here, probably with $.ajax
        // and save the hex argument.

        // Alternatively, you could set the value of a hidden input
        // here and submit a form afterward.

        $("#full").css("background-color", '#' + hex);
    }
});

Example of setting a hidden input value

HTML

<input id="hiddenHex" name="hiddenHex" type="hidden" value="" />

JS/jQuery

$('#hiddenHex').val(hex);
