I have text such as the following which I put into the htmltext of a list field:
<p><b>Mary Bloggs</b></p> <p>Joe Bloggs></p>
This works fine, but I can't seem to change the color of the text.
I have tried:
<p><font color="#FF0000">John Doe</font></p>
and several variations, none of which seem to produce any result. The "John Doe" is displayed, and if I make the line bold or italic that shows up correctly, but color (or any other font attribute) doesn't work. When I paste the lines of text into Dreamweaver they show the correct color.
I want to be able to set the colour of individual lines of text, not the entire block of text.
Mary,
Your code is almost O.K., there is only one Space too many between "<font" and "color=". Remove the extra Space and it should work.
One other simple way to colorize a line would be something like this:
"set the textcolor of line 2 of fld "ListField" to green".
If you search for a specific text line that should be colorized such a script would work (assuming you have a line "Three" in the list field):
"on mouseUp
set the wholematches to true
put lineoffset("Three", fld "Listfield") into tLine
put the htmltext of fld "ListField" into tInterim
if tInterim is not empty then
replace line tLine of tInterim with "<FONT color=#FF0000>"&line tLine of tInterim&"</FONT>" in tInterim
set the htmltext of fld "ListField" to tInterim
end if
end mouseUp"
or of course without resorting to HTMLText:
"on mouseUp
set the wholematches to true
put lineoffset("Three", fld "Listfield") into tLine
set the textcolor of line tLine of fld "ListField" to green
end mouseUp"Regards,
