I am using bootstrap colorpicker but my requirement is to change the default onload color differently on change of select drop down list.

I am using the below constructor :-

$('#colorPicker').colorpicker();

This is the code in jsp.

<div id='colorPicker'>

 <input type='text' value='#ea0437' class='form-control'/>

 <span class='input-group-addon'></span>

</div>

I am getting the color code from database so I can't add the initial color code as given above in the following line :

<input type='text' value='#ea0437' class='form-control'/>

How can I provide this color in constructor ?
The documentation says that there is a color option, but no demonstration given. How can I provide the color initially ? Something like this :

$('#colorPicker').colorpicker({

color : '#ea0437'

})

Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.
