Yes, I know why this happens, and yes, I already tried that, but it doesn’t work (if you meant using nowiki tags when using the template on a page, I don’t want to do that, since that’s not very convenient). The “#EEE” isn’t the problem; it’s the manually-entered “#00000” (or another hex code) in the parameter.

I could place the number sign outside the #if parameter, but I want the ability to use both “red” and “#FF0000.”
