In my webpage I’ve created a colour palette with a drag and drop action. It works fine! But my problem is when a colour is draged in to a certain area, How can I make the name of the colour display in a text box?

There are 60 colors in my palette and 5 areas where the user could drop different colors to. I want to have 5 text boxes for each selected color name to be displayed. Could anyone help me.
