Accessing a method in Stylesheets Class

Im trying to access the protected function compileColor() in the Stylesheets class [class StyleSheets extends Backend] - from the compile() method within a class I've created for a module [class ModuleSelectnav extends Module].
I keep getting cannot load/cannot instantiate errors.

Can someone tell me how i can call this?

just to give you a starting point (not tested and you have to edit it to add missing parameters)

Code:

---

class MyStyleSheets extends Stylesheets {

    public function compileColor() {
              return parent::compileColor();
    }

}

---

then in you module just create an instance of MyStyleSheets instead of Stylesheets


hope this helps

Awesome - thanks a heap ga.n
This works a treat.

Just to show others -

Code:

---

class SelectnavStyleSheets extends StyleSheets
{

    public function compileColor($color, $blnWriteToFile=false, $vars=array()) {
              return parent::compileColor($color, $blnWriteToFile=false, $vars=array());
    }       
}

---

and

Code:

---

$thanksGan = new SelectnavStyleSheets;       
$mm_bcolor1 = $thanksGan->compileColor(deserialize($this->mm_bcolor1));//Background Color #

I'm so appreciative I have named a variable in honour of you! :D
