There seems to be a bug when adjusting the colour of the identifiers in NetBeants 6.5 . I have not tried any other
versions. It seems to be related to hard-coded colours in the interface.

My environment is:
Linux hostname 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 18 19:25:34 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 090407)
Java: 1.6.0_0; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 14.0-b08
System: Linux version 2.6.28-15-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb)

Problem description:
It seems that adjusting the foreground choice for "Identifier" colour properties affects the foreground only in certain
cases, and in other cases it is set to "inherited". This is especially noticeable when the main background colour is set
to black. Attached are two screenshots. screenshot0 shows what the following text looks like normally, with the later
following preferences applied.
  For clarity, screenshot1 shows how it looks when I have selected all of the text. You'll see that the foreground
colour for "testClass" is different from "variable" and also is different from "__construct". The background colour for
all of these items is changed via the config line mentioned below.
  Additionally you will note that the opening and closing "<?php ... ?> have their foreground colour set to black as
well, which should definitely not be the case. It appears that their background is set via the "default" colour adjustment.

Here is the example code:
<?php
class testClass {
   private $variable = '5';

   function __construct($args){
      $this->variable = '6';
   }
}
?>

I believe that this is the line that adjusts the colour:
<fontcolor bgColor="ff484868" foreColor="green" name="identifier"/>

This is the XML file in which I believe these preferences are stored:
~/.netbeans/6.5/config/Editors/FontsColors/NetBeans/org-netbeans-modules-editor-settings-CustomFontsColors-tokenColorings.xml

Here is my entire file:
