Yeah Opera :D .

Nice tutorial, but can you also show or tell us what will happen if the browser doesn't support it?

@Remi1115 for this one it'll most likely be a plain textbox

Ok, thank you.

@Remi1115 If the browser doesn't support the 'color' input type, then a text-input-box will appear instead of the color-selector. If the user then typed in a hexadecimal code for a color, the result would be the same, they can't physically CHOOSE a color.

HOWEVER! If the user typed in the input box "red" or "green" etc, the output will recognize that and use the color red or green etc. Hope that made sense?

Yep it does, thank you. So nothing to worry about when this is used with browser that don't support HTML 5.
