Hextractor 1.1 released

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

Hot on the heels of Hextractor 1.0 comes version 1.1.

New features include the ability to submit a stylesheet by URL as well as uploading or copy/pasting it in. I’ve also expanded the open source colormapping class by including methods to convert between all three color types — hexadecimal, RGB, and named colors — instead of just converting names to hex and vice versa. Finally, this colormapping code has also been ported to Ruby and this, of course, can also be downloaded from Corvid Labs.

Less visible are come changes made to how forms are displayed and handled. Nothing that anyone would notice but it’s cleaner and more logical on the backend.
