Are you thinking RGB HEX color code? (there is many diffent code)

Red (RR), Green(GG), Blue(BB) in HEX mode in the format of:
#RRGGBB

where each value is 0-256 - but in HEXIDECIMAL (00 - ff) ie: 00,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,0A,0B,0C,0D,0E,0F, 10, 11 etc...)

#FA0202 is a red color - r:250 g:2 b:2
#FF6600 is an orange color r:255 g:102 b:0
#FF00FF is a Magenta color r:255 g:0 b:255

and so on....

Many graphic programs can change colour values via hex....Also WYSIWYG HTML editor and some CSS editors too.

For HTML "color" there is a few "standard" NON-HEX that you can use:

RED
TEAL
SILVER
GREEN
BLUE
GREY
WHITE
BLACK
YELLOW
etc...

Use your picture editor to find your colour or use COLOR COP freeware (http://datastic.com/tools/colorcop/download.php)

For CSS editing I use Bradsoft's TopStyle Lite.

Good Luck

If using photoshop, select the eyedropper tool, click the image for the color you want hex for then read it from the eyedropper tools box near the bottom right.

Here's a GREAT little color picker tool. http://www.lightman.com/software/huey/
It's free too. It's a desktop eyedropper tool that'll let you pick up a color anywhere on your screen and it gives you the HEX code and the RGB values for it. It's indispensible... one of the most useful little utilities in my webdev toolbox.
