Graphics::ColorNames::User3Contributed Perl DocumeGraphics::ColorNames::WWW(3)NAMEGraphics::ColorNames::WWW - WWW color names and equivalent RGB values
SYNOPSIS
require Graphics::ColorNames::WWW;
$NameTable = Graphics::ColorNames::WWW->NamesRgbTable();
$RgbBlack = $NameTable->{black};
DESCRIPTION
This module defines color names and their associated RGB values from
various WWW specifications, such as SVG or CSS as well as common
browser implementations.
See the documentation of Graphics::ColorNames for information how to
use this module.
Currently, SVG and CSS define the same color keywords and include all
color keywords supported by common web browsers. Therefore, the modules
Graphics::ColorNames::WWW, Graphics::ColorNames::SVG and
Graphics::ColorNames::CSS behave in identical ways.
This may change if the specs should happen to diverge; then this module
will become a superset of all color keywords defined by W3C's specs.
It is recommended to use this module unless you require exact
compatibility with the CSS and SVG specifications or specific browsers.
NOTE
Reportedly "fuchsia" was misspelled "fuscia" in an unidentified HTML
specification. It also appears to be a common misspelling, so both
names are recognized.
LIMITATIONS
The "transparent" keyword is unsupported. Currently,
Graphics::ColorNames does not allow RGBA values.
Further, the system color keywords are not assigned to a fixed RGB
value and thus unsupported: "ActiveBorder", "ActiveCaption",
"AppWorkspace", "Background", "ButtonFace", "ButtonHighlight",
"ButtonShadow", "ButtonText", "CaptionText", "GrayText", "Highlight",
"HighlightText", "InactiveBorder", "InactiveCaption",
"InactiveCaptionText", "InfoBackground", "InfoText", "Menu",
"MenuText", "Scrollbar", "ThreeDDarkShadow", "ThreeDFace",
"ThreeDHighlight", "ThreeDLightShadow", "ThreeDShadow", "Window",
"WindowFrame", "WindowText" (these are deprecated in CSS3)
