<colorchip id="mycolor" color="#000000" />

sets the color chips identify to mycolor and in theory should show black
as its default.

However,  it does not.

I have tried as many things as I could think of including
value="#000000" , <colorchip>#000000</colorchip>

If this isnt the case, lets see what the colorchip really contains...
Note: it does not return anything if the chip is not set, even with value
or color defined in the xml.

fl.trace(myXML.mycolor+' '+typeof(myXML.mycolor));

for(var i in myXML.mycolor) {
fl.trace(i+' '+typeof(i)+' 'myXML.mycolor[i]);
}

//Output

#3300CC string
0 string #
1 string 3
2 string 3
3 string 0
4 string 0
5 string C
6 string C

//

... 0_0 !! What the nelly?!

Where do we go from here? You cant set 0="" 1="" in the tag =/
