| Scripting | N/A |

Possible Values
| sColor | A String that specifies one of the color names or RGB values in the Color Table. |
Remarks
Microsoft JScript supports the entire set of colors as color names and as the corresponding RGB values. However, JScript always returns the property as a string specifying the RGB color value, regardless of the format the value was set to.
Some browsers do not recognize color names; but all browsers should recognize RGB color values and display them correctly.
