Regex for matching any hex, rgb(a), or hsl(a) value. Assumes that you've lowercased the string and removed spaces.

@percy507 It maches alpha with 0 I check It. It works great here is a demo.

You may want to consider putting \s* before number value groups in the RGB and HSL regexes so that you can capture formatted RGB strings like rgb(100, 200, 90) that may container spaces

rgb\((0|255|25[0-4]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|0?\d?\d),\s*(0|255|25[0-4]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|0?\d?\d),\s*(0|255|25[0-4]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|0?\d?\d)\)
