I made a field and set the forecolor of mine 1 to red, and the backcolor of line 2 to blue. This is what the htmlText of the field then becomes. <p><font color="#FF0000">Line 1</font></p> <p><font bgcolor="#0000FF">Line 2</font></p> However, the blue background for line 2 only covers the actual text, it doesn't fill the line.
