First of all, I was taling about chmod() - not color/colour.
But as to your other point - you seem to have a chip on your shoulder. What's
the difference between color and colour? Who really cares?
Yes, I'm in the U.S. But if they had spelled it colour, I'd use it. No problem.
But in the meantime you're asking all the browser manufacturers to change their
code. You're asking anyone who ever created a script to parse HTML to change
their code. You're asking the manufacturers of HTML editors to change their code.
All because of a "u"? There are far more important things in this world than
whether it's spelled color or colour!
