Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Farbtastic 2.x is in Alpha, but that doesn't mean we can't investigate its adoption into Drupal 7 core. This also means we can help in its debugging and development.
The whole misc/farbtastic folder should be removed as misc/farbtastic.js is the new location. We don't need the other files anymore because Farbtastic 2 is awesome.

mfer commentedFYI, the big hold up for a farbtastic 2 is IE 6. You can see the problem at http://skitch.com/mattfarina/bj2ru/farbtastic-v2-ie6
IE 6, won't you please go away.
Also, the is canvas based so explorer canvas is needed for IE.
Comment #2
damien tournoud commentedI'm not sure that depending on ExplorerCanvas is a good idea either.
Comment #3
mfer commentedThis needs to be pushed out to when we no longer support ie6.

nod_now is the time.
There is an html5 color input type: #1445224: Add new HTML5 FAPI element: color
I'm for dropping this altogether and let contrib deal with it.
Comment #5
markhalliwellI'm re-purposing this to decide what to do with this ancient library. If we can drop it with #1651344: Use color input type in the color.module, great. If not, we need to decide whether to update or implement a new library.

markhalliwellMarked #1166078: Interaction between color wheel and Saturation/Brightness box wasn't initially obvious. as a dup of this issue.
Comment #7
mfer commentedFYI, farbtastic isn't being maintained anymore. I say that as the last person to actually maintain it. Someone else either needs to take over maintainership or a migration to something new should happen.

markhalliwellLooks like we're moving in this direction.
