Can't use HTML color names when animating

[OrIOg]

Fiddle

Explanation

• What is the behaviour you expect? SVG.js should be able to map HTML color names to hex value for the interpolation in animation ex: "green" -> "#00F000" Maybe using the hex value during interpolation, and setting as the wanted named color when the animation is done.

• What is happening instead? It seems that the color are not detected(instead detected as object). Then the svg's attributes become invalid(ie [object Object]), making the parser crash.

• What error message are you getting?

svg.js wil not do that for you. A mapping would just add a lot of code for almost no benefit. So this is a wontfix unfortunately
