Wow. I haven't seen a tag in years. My thought processes loading this: • Ok, that is in fact green. • I wonder if this is related to the colour name parsing weirdness that was on HN a couple of weeks ago? • Heeeey, those aren't ASCII quotes!
Green - with ascii quotes and an invisible seperator. http://jsfiddle.net/WGSNX/264/

Maybe it's just late at night, but how does this work? I understand the words "invisible separator", but for lack of better phrasing, I don't see an invisible separator.

My font shows it as a missing character box.
I'm guessing that it just breaks the 'red' into a value which is interpreted as whatever the hex is. (See the chuck norris links posted in this thread).

Maybe something is wrong with me, but the first thing I noticed was the quotes. In fact, from the title posted on HN.
and
color="red"
Note the difference between ” and "
"red" is in fact red.
”abc” is still green!

Between the r and the e there is a U+2063 "invisible separator"

This neatly explains why `red` also becomes green.
#FF0000 also became green (with these quotes)
= ”#FF0000”
= 0#FF00000 (rule 10)
= 00FF00000 (rule 10)
= 00F F00 000 (rule 12)
= 00 F0 00 (rule 15)
= #00F000 (rule 16)
