David,

Thanks so much, the below worked just great in a the tabular view, do you if
this would work in a facet as well?

If you just want to display a colored ball, then try
   <img ex:src-subcontent="ball-{{.
>

> and then have 3 images on your site called ball-1.png, ball-2.png, and

Here is my facet, but I can't seem to be able to get the syntax correct to
make it work?

<div ex:role="facet"
ex:expression="src-subcontent=images/ball-{{.phealth}}.png"
ex:facetLabel="Project Health" ex:height="7em"</div>

Any help would be appreciated...

thanks

Steve
