A while ago I wrote a Hexadecimal Color Fading Tutorial explaining how to select a single color at any point on a gradient between two specified colors. In that tutorial there was a function which efficiently broke each of the 2 specified colors into their Red, Green and Blue components and then calculated a single new color at a specified point between them.

Here's what the code looks like:...

Did you notice that I said "nearly"? Well, today I've added yet another weapon to my color-fading code arsenal called "fadeHex". The name probably won't put fear in the hearts of fellow code warriors but it's a powerful tool none the less. In essence, it lets you specify two colors, then creates a color gradient from the first color to the second and lets you choose a color at any point on that gradient....
