jQuery UI Color Picker

Viewed 138327

I have heard that jQuery UI includes a Color Picker but could find little documentation regarding it.

Does it exist?

Any decent documentation on how to implement it?

I found this: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Colorpicker

But using:

$("#colorpicker").colorpicker();

does not work, with Firebug telling me .colorpicker(); is not a method!

It seems to work fine, unless I put it in a dialog UI where it then decides to break.

Make sure you have jQuery UI base and the color picker widget included on your page (as well as a copy of jQuery 1.3):

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/tags/ui/latest/themes/flora/flora.all.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="Flora (Default)">

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/tags/ui/latest/ui/ui.core.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/tags/ui/latest/ui/ui.colorpicker.js"></script>

If you have those included, try posting your source so we can see what's going on.
