You are awesome Charlie! Thanks! Checking if I understand how this works: basically, it just splits [the list | the field value] by each letter and replaces it with the "code" from my classes, right? So if there are 15 possible color-classes, I would just add as many of the "+[search-replace:i[r],[red]]" pieces as needed, such as +[search-replace:i[p],[ppl]]?
The thisStyle line is just the CSS for the dot shape etc, correct? (you almost EXACTLY guessed my formatting for the class - or maybe you inspected :) ) And all together, it just recreates the span details i'm using now, on the fly, right? Why the between the span tags though? And could the split be larger? Say 2 or 3 characters? (then I can use pk/pnk for pink instead of n because p is already taken by purple...)
