[Suggestion] Please make a simple example on vanilla JS and some explaination

Hi @thednp
it is actually as easy as you suggested, you just picked the wrong file.
First you have to decide if you want to take the javaScript only or the jQuery implementation,
so you chose the folders 'javascript_implememntation/' or 'jQuery_implementation/' where you find the file you want to use: either 'jsColorPicker.min.js' or 'jQueryColorPicker.min.js' (instead of 'colorPicker.js').
You don't need any CSS file as this is integrated.

Good luck,
Peter

I want to use the vanilla js, and it's pretty difficult. Maybe I don't understand the code, but in your examples you have several js files included, makes it pretty confusing.

I wish there was an example with ONE js file and initialization via inline scripting.

Just take the example javascript_implementation/index.html and remove all <script> tags with the attribute src="..." except the last out commented one

<script type="text/javascript" src="jsColorPicker.min.js"></script>

remove the comment tags and the demo will work.

This file (jsColorPicker.min.js) includes all other files: colors.js (that calculates color related stuff), colorPicker.data.js (that holds the HTML and CSS for the UI), colorPicker.js (the UI only) and jsColor.js (which is the implementation that makes colorPicker work on input fields, etc...)

Thank you, will do.

@thednp
have you been successful?

[thednp]

Sorry, I got busy with other stuff, I'll close this for now and re-open, only if I encounter problems.

Thank you so much.

@PitPik I finally managed to implement into my code, but it's gonna be the jQuery version. For some unknown reason the native JS isn't working, but I'm sure it's my implementation issue not the color picker itself.
