rgbaColorPicker

rgbaColorPicker can handle selecting and outputting colors in hex and RGBa color codes, along with the HTML color names convention.

The main difference between rgbaColorPicker and other color pickers is its support for selecting the color's opacity level, feature not included with most color pickers today.

The color picker also includes a special section where the user can select greyscale colors, but this section is optional.

rgbaColorPicker is based on TinyColor, a JavaScript library for color manipulation.

A demo is included with the download package.
