Answer 1

You will probably need a color table with, say, 20 colors, the clients can use to filter the products.

Here is one rather simple database design where a product has various colors:

table color - these are the generic colors used for filtering

• color_id
• color_name - eg 'red', a text you can use to show in the filter options
• color_code - eg #FF0000, a color you can use to show in the filter options

table product - the product (irrespective of its colors)

• product_id
• product_description

table product_color - the product's colors; these are the items that are actually ordered

• product_id
• color_id
• color_name, product-specific eg 'dark red'
• price

(That may get more complicated when the product has various sizes, too.)

Answer 2

For storing color in database use input type color if you want to store colorcode in html.

And in sql save the color with a char(6) without the # if the column is not null... if the column is nullable use a varchar(6) to saving size

如果仅使用0xRRGGBB格式，而不是在数据库中以整数形式存储，并且在要选择时以十六进制形式存储，或者如何将值存储在数据库中取决于它。
