The one built into the Gimp and Photshop are the best. I wrote one in PHP/JavaScript a while ago but the code is terrible from what I remember and I cant seem to find it :oops:

i use google for practically everything ;p i even dug into the 3rd page of the results and the color codes seemed to be all javascript

i did find a couple tables, but doing it myself proved much easier for customization
