Another, simpler way direct from the Photoshop Help documentation:

"Photoshop copies colors either as an HTML COLOR attribute containing the hexadecimal value (color=#xxyyzz), or as the hexadecimal value alone.

Do one of the following:

With the Eyedropper tool, move the pointer over the color that you want to copy. Right-click (Windows) or Control‑click (Mac OS), and choose Copy Color As HTML or Copy Color’s Hex Code.

Set the foreground color using the Color panel, the Swatches panel, or the Adobe Color Picker. From the Color panel menu, choose Copy Color As HTML or Copy Color’s Hex Code.

In the Save For Web dialog box, click the color swatch or choose Matte > Other. In the Adobe Color Picker, right-click the hexadecimal value, and choose Copy.

Open the desired file in an HTML editing application, and choose Edit > Paste."
