How to get rgb color code of color 'white' in javascript?

Question

I want a javascript function which will take a color name as parameter and it returns the color rgb code.

Although the OP is asking for RGB not hex. You could use the same principle in that linked answer and create a map for the rgb values. rgb(255,255,255) being white, etc. Unless the OP actually means hex, in which case, carry on. :) — i-CONICA, Jun 20 '14 at 09:58

You could set the style to a html element, let's say the <div id='d1'></div>

then you could check the computed color:

    var d1 = document.getElementById('d1')
    var color = window.getComputedStyle(d1, null)['color']
