Format::setFgColor -- Sets the cell's foreground color

Synopsis

require_once "Spreadsheet/Excel/Writer.php";

void Format::setFgColor (mixed $color)

Description

Sets the cell's foreground color. The color actually seen may depend on the pattern being used (see setPattern()).

Parameter

Using colors

The list of colors that can be defined by name is: 'black', 'white', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow', 'magenta' and 'cyan'. If you want to know how the other indexed colors look like, you can see it here. Beware that the color indexes are displaced by 1 with respect to those used by Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer.

If non of the predifined colors seems to be the color you are looking for, don't despair. You can use the setCustomColor() method to define a new color by its RGB components.

Note

This function can not be called statically.
