Named colors select box php

[DrDOS]

When called the buildColors function will generate a drop down box with all the x-window named colors, 139 in all. All browsers recognize them by name. The value entry of the options can be set to the # value of the color, the name of the color, or the index of the array for that color. You can call it as many times as you need on a page. The selects are named such as to build an array named myinputs when posted.
