Modifying BBC Code

ChalkCat:
All I want to do is change the colour formatting tags from [color=blah][/color] to [colour=blah][/colour].  (My members are complaining about it using the American spelling.)

I have changed every instance of "color" to "colour" in Subs-Editor.php, Post.php and have modified the index.css item bbc_color, without making an iota of difference.  I have, however, managed to change the spelling in the dropdown box of the post form.

What am I missing?  Or have I set myself about an impossible task?  I have reverted everything back to how it was pending the answer  ;)

Doctor Deejay:
I'm sorry but what is your question exactly?

ChalkCat:
I want the BBC colour tag to work as [colour=......] [/colour] using the UK spelling.  Is it possible?

Doctor Deejay:
Yes it is possible, but I haven't tried it as I'm okay with the Americanized spelling so I don't know how much work it will cost. But as long as you take backups before modifying anything I'd say try it and see how it goes. :)

ChalkCat:
Thanks :)  Do you know what else I might need to edit?  I have already changed every "color" to "colour" in Subs-Editor.php and Post.php, and I have edited the spelling of "bbc_color" in the CSS file, but clicking on the post form dropdown is still producing the American spelling.  Can you suggest anywhere else I can try editing?
