I seem to misunderstand the documentation, as
\newcommand\ph{\textcolor{red}{XXX}}causes pdflatex to halt. I'm not sure if this is the error:
! Argument of \sf@@subfloat has an extra }.And I also don't know what it is referring to.
What I want to achieve is that
\myshortcommandturns into
\textcolor{red}{XXX}so the output is
XXX (in red)

Harald Hanche-Olsen almost 13 yearsYour suggested command works just fine, as my answer indicates. You will need to provide more detail, preferably with a minimal working example.

\newcommanddefinition doesn't cause the problem.\sf@@subfloatis defined by thesubfigpackage. So I guess, the problem is caused by a fragile command within a subfigure caption. You might look for that. -
Hendrik Vogt almost 13 years@None: You may also want to go ahead and delete this question (I read from your comment to the answer that it was just a problem with a typo, so the question is no longer relevant). For being able to delete, you have to register I guess.

None almost 13 years@Hendrik: The question is no longer relevant with regard to the problem caused by my typo, but it's a valid question with a valid answer, so it may solve somebody's problem. I should have commented the cause here instead of in Harald's answer though.

Hendrik Vogt almost 13 years@None: I can't really see that this question is helpful since it doesn't tell me the code that produced the error. So I also fail to see how it could solve somebody's problem. In the future, please do provide a minimal example that illustrates your problem.

None almost 13 yearsOops. I only now saw that the label argument of subfloat has an extra } (though hidden by my editor's syntax higlighting. :-( Thanks nonetheless for testing.
