Simple Way to Validate CSS Colors

```
function isColor(col) {
```
```
  const cache = isColor[col]
```
```
  if (cache != null) {
```
```
    console.log('- reading cache')
```
```
    return cache
```
```
  }
```
```
  isColor.el.style = ''
```
```
  isColor.el.style.color = col
```

  return isColor[col] = !!isColor.el.style.color

```
}
```

isColor.el = document.createElement('div')

```
 
```
```
 
```

console.log('is "red" a color?', isColor('red'))

console.log('from the cache: ', isColor('red'))

```
 
```

console.log('is "rgbx(1, 2, 3)" a color?', isColor('rgbx(1, 2, 3)'))

```
 
```

console.log('is "#0f0" a color?', isColor('#0f0'))

```
 
```

console.log('is "hsl(192, 50%, 50%)" a color?', isColor('hsl(192, 50%, 50%)'))

console.log('from the cache: ', isColor('hsl(192, 50%, 50%)'))

```
 
```

console.log('is "lab(2000.1337% -8.6911 -159.131231 / .987189732)" ?',

  isColor('lab(2000.1337% -8.6911 -159.131231 / .987189732)'))

```
 
```

console.log('is "snippetZone" ?', isColor('snippetZone'))

I find this technique is usually good enough to validate colors…

Cut Hole in Canvas (eraser)

document.body.style.background = 'gray';

const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');

```
const c = canvas.getContext('2d');
```
```
 
```
```
canvas.width = 300;
```
```
canvas.height = 300;
```
```
 
```
```
c.fillStyle='rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.8)'
```

c.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

```
 
```

c.globalCompositeOperation = 'destination-out';

```
c.fillStyle = 'black';
```
```
c.fillRect(100, 100, 150, 50);
```
```
 
```
```
document.body.appendChild(canvas);
```

destination-out is great for creating masks and eraser tools – things like that – in this case a 150×50 rectangle is cut out of a red background.
