pulling the hex or RGB from the colourlovers feeds.

[joshchernoff]

OK hers a RSS feed I would like to use. http://www.colourlovers.com/rss/lover/gfxcomplex/colors/new

When you look in the xml, you will see that no where will it explicitly say the hex or rgb of the color other then the with in the url string and alt tag of the image.

so what would be a better practice?

One:
Try to pull the hex from the url with a some type of get string method or?

Two:
fined a way to get the value from the alt tag of the image?

I think that is a question better served to Darius himself or to the cL forums. Not too sure why you would ask here.

What's this for/what language would you like to do it in..?

XML to AS3, I got a idea to allow users to upload their own rss feeds to a project I'm working on. I thought seeing as this is mainly a designer/developer community some one would have already had this problem once before.

moved it for ya, since it involves AS3 type shizzle....good luck.
