FireFox and IE convert original color values to RGB

I know FF and IE internally convert color to RGB, which causes problem, because the color values don't match what is on the server.

Proof:

Chrome 18:
CKEDITOR.instances.selected_text_actual.getData()
>> "s <span style="color: #ff0000">text</span>"

FireFox 11:
CKEDITOR.instances.selected_text_actual.getData()
>> "s <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">text</span>"

So, the way I want to solve the problem is to make CKEditor's data processor always use the rgb values. Is there a way to do that?

CKEDITOR.on( 'instanceReady', function( ev ){
         var editor = ev.editor,
              dataProcessor = editor.dataProcessor,
                htmlFilter = dataProcessor && dataProcessor.htmlFilter;
                
         // HTML 4 way to end tags
              dataProcessor.writer.selfClosingEnd = '>';
              
              htmlFilter.addRules({
                 elements:{
                    $:function(element){
                       var e = jQuery(element);
                       e.css("color", e.css("color")); // jquery auto converts to rgb
                    }
                 }
              });

      });

a.attr("style", "color: #444")
[
<div style="color: #444"></div>
]
a.css("color", a.css("color"));
[
<div style="color: rgb(68, 68, 68); "></div>
]

That code is copied from the output HTML sample
If you look at it you'll find that there's something more, including a color processor.

What do you mean? I don't see any color processor.

Have you looked at the convertRGBToHex function?
