Is there a freeware/opensource source-code editor that can make the text background of any hex color code the color of the hex color code?

I'm new to web development and I'm going over some pre-writen code to customize it the way I like but figuring out what color is what so I can figure out what part of the website I'm modifying is slowing me down big time.

Thanks in advance.
 
you can try the ColorZilla extension for Firefox. It allows you to hover over any part of a web page and find out the color hex value for that area. It won't save or write the hex code for you, but at least you'll know what it is.
 
You may also find the DOM Inspector in Firefox useful. It will allow you to identify an element on the web page in the DOM tree, including which CSS rules apply to it. Very useful. One step further is the Firebug extension which is really much more powerful than what you're looking for, but should accomplish what you need and a lot more.
 
+1 for maw's suggestion. The newer version does give the ability to paste into the Clipboard, too. You may also find the Web Developer plugin for FF has some useful related tools/features.
