In a PHP project database, there was a text filed for colours that should be shown as a background colour of a box in front of the product name. Stored colours were like these:
- Blue
- BLUE
- Tomato
- Beech
- Flame
- Red Salmon
- …
That some of them were not a standard colour for HTML, I searched the Internet for the colour to the HEX code table, and I added some non-standard but recurrent colours on that project like:
- Wood
- Charcol
- Gun Metal
- United Nations Blue
- …
to this PHP function, you can add yours
<?php
function colourtexthex($colour_text)
