Can't figure out the color of an svg element
- by yass
I have a very simple HTML page, viewable on gh-pages with the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<link href="style.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js'>
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="page">
<div id="content">
<div id="heatmap">
<svg style="margin-left: 80px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" width="800" height="880">
<g transform="translate(80,80)">
<rect style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" height="720" width="720">
</rect>
</g>
</svg>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
with the following CSS:
body {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
#wrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
}
#page {
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 40px 0px 0px 0px;
}
#content {
float: left;
width: 660px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
background: #FFFFFF;
}
I expect the rectangle, 'svg rect' to be the color #FFFFFF, or white. But it shows up as some other color. I opened it up in firebug, and it shows the computed color to be #FFFFF:
