Grace,
Please correct me if I am wrong.
The ND Page generation is Driven by the .htm
If the .htm has
<td bgcolor="**stColor**"> **actualField** </td>, then the sequence of
events will be:
==========================================
Repeated_onBeforeRowDisplayEvent() {
// It is too early to try to get the Current value of actualField
// Here ..
}
stColor_onBeforeDisplayEvent() {
// Or here ..
}
stColor_onBeforeHtmlOutput() {
// Or even here.
}
// And now it is too late to change the value of stColor
actualField_onBeforeDisplayEvent();
actualField_onBeforeHtmlOutput();
==========================================
Thanks.
Aby
