MX2004 - "font color" property not working in loop populated text field

[pup100]

Hi,

I have the following script which works fine in the "Text Area" component of MX2004:

code:

---

_root.dym_txt.html = true;

_root.trink_array = ["Carp", "Cod", "Bream"];

_root.trinity_array = new Array();

for (var g = 0; g<=2; g++) {

	_root.trinity_array[g] = _root.trink_array[g];

	some_str += "<br>"+_root.trinity_array[g]+"</br>";

}

_root.dym_txt.text = some_str;

---

However, if I try & change the “color” property instead of just putting a break <br> in the text Flash throws it’s toys out of the pram & wont let me use the code to obtain this:

_root.dym_txt.html = true;
_root.trink_array = ["Carp", "Cod", "Bream"];
_root.trinity_array = new Array();
for (var g = 0; g<=2; g++) {
_root.trinity_array[g] = _root.trink_array[g];
some_str += "<font color="#92A312">"+_root.trinity_array[g]+"</font>";
}
_root.dym_txt.text = some_str;

The error message:

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 7: Unexpected '}' encountered
}

Comes up?

Any help please.

Instead of double quote marks, try using single quote marks around the color number...

_root.dym_txt.html = true;
_root.trink_array = ["Carp", "Cod", "Bream"];
_root.trinity_array = new Array();
for (var g = 0; g <= 2; g++) {
	_root.trinity_array[g] = _root.trink_array[g];
	some_str += "<font color='#92A312'>" + _root.trinity_array[g] + "</font>";
}
_root.dym_txt.text = some_str;
