[fusionpro] RE: Rule to change font in a field

[Dan Korn]

When you say that it's not working, exactly what are you seeing, and how
is it different than what you're expecting?

If you want to use the result of another rule instead of the field
value, you can just change the first line to something like this:

    var input = Rule("addressLCRULE ");

Or, you can just set the string you're working with to lower-case
directly, without requiring a second rule, like so:

    var input = ToLower(Field("Address"));

The font in the Text Editor shouldn't matter.  This rule should work
with any font.

Remember to check the "Treat returned strings as tagged values" box on
the Rule Editor dialog.  Also, you may need to replace spaces in the
returned value with entities.  Try this and see what you get:

    var input = ToLower(Field("Address"));
    var result = "";
    for (var i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
    {
      if (input[i] == " ")
      {
        result += "&#32;";
        continue;
      }
      if ("1234567890".indexOf(input[i]) != -1)
        result += "<f name=MetaPlusBookRoman>";
      else
        result += "<f name=MetaPlusBookCaps>";
        
      result += input[i];
    }
    return result;
