Color resource based on contents of field

[psmosser]

I need a rule to look at the "MagazineDescriptionField" for the word "PINK" and if it is there to change the color of a text resource.

 

This is what I have so far.

 

//Magazine Descripion Changes to Pink for Pink Edition and Red for Standard

var MagDesc = CreateResource(Field("MagazineDescriptionField"), "plain text file", true);

if (Field("CoverTemplate").indexOf("PINK") > -1)

return MagDesc.content = '<span color= "M059-PinkIssue">' + MagDesc.content + '</span>'; 


else

return MagDesc.content;

This returns the resource but isn't changing the color. The log file states "Unknown Tag color="M059-Pink ignored.

Unknown Tag ignored."

 

What do I have wrong?

Instead of this:

return MagDesc.content = '<span color= "M059-PinkIssue">' + MagDesc.content + '</span>';

You probably want to do this:

return '<span color= "M059-PinkIssue">' + MagDesc.content + '</span>';

Thanks Dan. That did the trick.
