Ok, your suggestion worked. But I'm still a little confused as to why my
solution didn't. If I explicitly do something like this:
<textlistitem fontstyle="bold" .../>
The text displayed by the textlistitem will display as bold. If, however,
I try to set the attribute manually, it doesn't work. Is this a case
where textlistitem should be propagating the attribute setting down to its
components (i.e. _title?)
Thanks again for your help.

Your method is operating on a textlistitem, not actual text.
I think what you want is "this._title.setAttribute("fontstyle", "bold");

I have a list which is displaying some textlistitems based on
information extracted from some XML data. Depending on the information
in the XML, I may want an individual textlistitem to display as bold or
not. I've tried doing the following, but didn't get the result I was
hoping for:
<textlistitem datapath="somedata">
<method event="ondata">
<![CDATA[
var textToDisplay =
this.datapath.xpathQuery("someElement/text()");
if (someTest) {
// this.setAttribute("fontstyle", "bold"); <-- I tried
this both ways
this.fontstyle = "bold";
}
this.setAttribute("text", textToDisplay);
]]>
</method>
</textlistitem>
No matter what I tried, the information was never bolded. The only way
I could get bold text was to specify a fontstyle="bold" on the
textlistitem tag itself. Of course, this makes every item bold, which
isn't what I
want. I also know that the code inside of 'someTest' is being
reached. I even tried setting the fontstyle outside of the 'if', and
that made no
difference either.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!
