Description:
------------
For obvious reasons the setOptions() method of RRDGraph doesnt seam to accept multiple --color switches.  Since an array is passed this makes sense being that you cant have multiple keys with the same name.  I tried to not use the key => value method and pass mutliples using array( '--color BACK#00000000', '--color GRID#00000000', ...); but that doesnt appear to work either.

Not really sure what the option is to resolve this...

Test script:
---------------
$rrdgraph = new RRDGraph("-");
$rrdgraph->setOptions( array(
   '--color' => 'BACK#00000000',
   '--color' => 'GRID#00000000',
   '--color' => 'MGRID#00000000',
));
$rrddata = $rrdgraph->saveVerbose();

i've been able to get multiple color switch using this format.

$rrdgraph = new RRDGraph("-");
$rrdgraph->setOptions( array(
   '--color=BACK#00000000',
   '--color=GRID#00000000',
   '--color=MGRID#00000000',
));
$rrddata = $rrdgraph->saveVerbose();

Bryan,

I just figured it out the other day that I could simply do the following.  

array('--color', 'BACK#00000000', '--color', 'GRID#00000000', ...);

As much as i liked using a key/value pair for easy reading, I decided to just 
stick with each option being an array value like above.

Also, maybe we should update the php docs to show an example of this?

You declare array with same key multiple times, hence your argument for the setOption call like:

array(
   '--color' => 'BACK#00000000',
   '--color' => 'GRID#00000000',
   '--color' => 'MGRID#00000000',
);

is in fact only:

array(
   '--color' => 'MGRID#00000000'
);

this is the nature of php arrays.

Solution is suggested by Brian. I agree with the better docs, but I need to find the repo with the php-docs, it takes some time, it's little bit complicated for me modifying the php-docs one per many years.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
