This function shows its usefulness on a web site where a user is asked to entered a hexidecimal color code for a color. To prevent breaking W3C standard and having them enter in "neon-green" or the wrong type of code like 355511235.

In conjunction with strlen()  you could create a function like this:

function check_valid_colorhex($colorCode) {
   // If user accidentally passed along the # sign, strip it off
   $colorCode = ltrim($colorCode, '#');

   if (
         ctype_xdigit($colorCode) &&
         (strlen($colorCode) == 6 || strlen($colorCode) == 3))
               return true;

   else return false;
}
