looking for a program (or website)...

don't know if any of you might know, but, i'm looking for a program (or a website) that shows a guitar fretboard that i can check off which strings on which frets should be played. this program would then output the name of the chord (Am7, for example).

anyone know anything like this? i know there's lots of programs that will do the opposite (enter the chord name and it will show you the chord configurations on the fretboard).

thx.

EDIT:NEVERMIND. I'M A KNUCKLEHEAD!!

how am i a knuckle head? let me count the ways...

okay, i found these 2 websites within 45 seconds of posting. (that's how i'm a knucklehead).

http://www.all-guitar-chords.com/chord_name.php : super informative, top to bottom.

http://www.chordbook.com/guitarchords.php : a bit harder to navigate, i think, but gets big points for a snazzy look and being able to hear the chords by clicking 'strum'.

enjoy!
