Hi everyone:

 

I am designing a new form and have hit a roadblock.  I'd appreciate any and
all suggestions.

 

Here's what I want to do.  I want to create a web news portal very similar
to, say, MSN.  If you take a look at MSN, you'll see it displays the
headline of a news story as a hyperlink.  Click the headline, and the
browser displays another page with the whole story.

 

I want to reproduce this behavior in Remedy, and the solution must work both
on the client and on the Midtier.

 

So here's what I want:

 

-          The story headline should appear as text directly on the
background-no Remedy table or view field.

-          The color of the headline text should be configurable (blue, red,
green, etc.) to match the design template.  In other words, no black text!

-          The headlines obviously must be dynamic.  That is, the news
person writes the story on a support form and includes a headline.  The
headline automatically then appears on the news portal.

 

Here's what I've thought of so far.  I thought about setting an edit field
to Display as Text and then covering it with a transparent URL button with
spaces as the caption.  The spaces create nothing but a line.  The URL
button could then be positioned just right over the edit field such that the
line looks like it's underlining the edit field text.  This solution would
work fine IF I was OK with black text.  Unfortunately, the text cannot be
black.

 

Any ideas out there?

 

Norm
