[SOLVED] Link Color in Drilldowns
This is what I used: HYPERLINK-COLOR=RGB(3 1 5) ... I like that number.

I Want The Drilldown Link Text To Be: COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD.

What am I missing?

TABLE FILE CAR
"I Want The Drilldown Link Text To Be COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD"
SUM DCOST RCOST
BY COUNTRY BY CAR BY MODEL BY TYPE BY SEATS
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/enwarm.sty,$
GRID=OFF, BORDER=OFF, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=9, STYLE=NORMAL,$
TYPE=HEADING, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=10, STYLE=ITALIC+BOLD,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, ALT='I Want Black Text Here.', TARGET='_blank',
COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD,
FOCEXEC=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/ScrathPad.fex(ThisNumber=9 ThisValue='Doug'), $
END

You're styling the text that the drilldown is on, not the drilldown itself.

I don't think you can do that with FOCUS styling, but you can with CSS by applying a style to the 'a'-tag.

If you want to limit the styling to only drilldown styles on the COUNTRY column, then it's possible to add CLASS=COUNTRY to the FOCUS style and use that as a class in the CSS stylesheet.
ON TABLE SET CSSURL='IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/doug.css'
...
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, CLASS=COUNTRY, , ALT='I Want Black Text Here.', TARGET='_blank', FOCEXEC=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/ScrathPad.fex(ThisNumber=9 ThisValue='Doug'), $
END

And in doug.css:
a.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a { color: black, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }
a:visited.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a:visited { color: silver, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }
a:active.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a:active { color: lime, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }

Thanks Wep5622, However, it didn't work.

I get: Error / Error Pre-parsing focexec... ... So, what's wrong with it?

Here's the full 3 line content of IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/html_dd.cs.

a.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a { color: black, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }
a:visited.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a:visited { color: silver, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }
a:active.COUNTRY, td.COUNTRY a:active { color: lime, text-decoration: none, font-weight: bold }


And my modified code:
TABLE FILE CAR
"I Want The Drilldown Link Text To Be COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD"
SUM DCOST RCOST
BY COUNTRY BY CAR BY MODEL BY TYPE BY SEATS
ON TABLE SET CSSURL='IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/html_dd.css'
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/enwarm.sty,$
GRID=OFF, BORDER=OFF, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=9, STYLE=NORMAL,$
TYPE=HEADING, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=10, STYLE=ITALIC+BOLD,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, ALT='I Want Black Text Here.', TARGET='_blank',
COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD,
FOCEXEC=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/ScrathPad.fex(ThisNumber=9 ThisValue='Doug'), $
END

Try removing the quotes in the SET CSSURL statement.

That sounded so good considering that there's no quotes around the fex name. But, it's still spinning (trying to parse it?) after 5 minutes. Frowner

And, weird, there's no signs of any agents running...

Sorry, I should have mentioned I live in the old world: my CSS files are located where they logically should be - on the web server, in one of the approot folders.

Are we sure that I don't need anything else besides those three lines?

Here's some 'old world' code from a website I did back in the late 80s where it's 'wrapped' in <STYLE> tags:
<style>
a:link 	  {text-decoration:none;color:gold;background:none}
a:visited {text-decoration:none;color:gold;background:none}
a:active  {text-decoration:none;color:gold;background:none}
a:hover   {text-decoration:none;color:silver;background:none}
</style>

It should read (without the equals sign):
ON TABLE SET CSSURL 'IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/html_dd.css'


Francis may be right that the CSS file needs to live on the webserver. We don't use the content repository, so all our code is on the reporting server without those IBFS paths, so I had to take a guess there Wink

I am having a similar issue. I will report back when I get mine running.

One thing I noticed is that the syntax should be: ON TABLE SET CSSURL url, with no '=' between CSSURL and the url.

Thanks Guys, Sorry for the delayed reply, this post got chopped and they fixed it.

So, Here's what I have now 
TABLE FILE CAR
"I Want The Drilldown Link Text To Be COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD"
SUM DCOST RCOST
BY COUNTRY BY CAR BY MODEL BY TYPE BY SEATS
-* NG ON TABLE SET CSSURL=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/html_dd.css
ON TABLE SET CSSURL IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/html_dd.css
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/enwarm.sty,$
-* NG INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/Vendor/html_dd.css,$
GRID=OFF, BORDER=OFF, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=9, STYLE=NORMAL,$
TYPE=HEADING, FONT=ARIAL, SIZE=10, STYLE=ITALIC+BOLD,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=COUNTRY, ALT='I Want Black Text Here.', TARGET='_blank',
COLOR=BLACK, SIZE=8, STYLE=-UNDERLINE+BOLD,
FOCEXEC=IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Vendor/Doug/ScrathPad.fex(ThisNumber=9 ThisValue='Doug'), $
END

I have the css in the associated app, MRE domain, and web apps folders. Where SHOULD it reside and what addressing should I use?

Tony, BT I renoved that STYLE Much which I just added as another attempt to get it to work...

In WF 8202 we can use HYPERLINK-COLOR Property,

 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN = columnname,

HYPERLINK-COLOR=RGB(51 102 255), $

Assuming that you're using the CSS snippet from my original reply, you are missing the reference to the CSS-class in the CSS file; I added that in the above snippet.

If you used the general snippet that applies styling to EVERY anchor tag in the report, then you don't need that.

If you used ChaudHary's styles, he implemented it as +UNDERLINE+BOLD, not -UNDERLINE+BOLD.

If the HTTP request for the CSS file does not return an error, then it should apply the styling. You can verify that in your browser using the console (F12) in the Network tab - most browsers these days have that. If all is well, the request for the CSS file returns a HTTP 200, but if the web-server can't find it you will see a HTTP 404, or a HTTP 401 if you don't have access to that particular file.

I'm not sure where your apps directory starts in that path, but on the webserver that's usually referred to as /approot.
If Doug is a directory directly in your approot, then the reference would be: /approot/Doug/html_dd.css

setting HYPERLINK-COLOR=RGB(6 0 0) instead of color works - this is also being set in the enwarm.sty file to the blue color.
