function convertBase(convertFrom, convertTo, convertString){ return parseInt(convertString,convertFrom).toString(convertTo);}

Usage: Use to convert from base 16 to 10, or the other way around. Useful for hex codes, etc.

Example:
var Converted = convertBase(16,10,"ff"); //Converted = "255"
var ConvertedBack = convertBase(10,16,Converted); //ConvertedBack = "ff"
A little open source snippet because not many people I know know about the optional parameters in toString and parseInt.

EDIT: Fixed some typos.
