Brian - do you want the color of the text to change, or the background of the text field to change? If text color, and since some type of action is triggering a display of new info (that is, user is clicking a button or a link), simply use the <font color=> tag as appropriate to your need. If field background, you'll probably want to define multiple styles, and apply the style appropriate to your need when displaying the Job details. Personally, I would use multiple styles either way (text or background) - it will offer more flexibility and aid uniformity. Mike [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
