Hi,

 

Got an expression on a data label, with CONCAT (some text and a Hyperlink) - the Hyperlink is a mailto:email link

 

On the form, when you click the hyperlink, it goes from blue to that horrible K2 neon green, i want to change it to remain dark blue.

I've tried to change it using HTML <font color> tag, but that doens't work.

 

I suspect the Platinum theme is over-riding the HTML font tag i enter.

 

Is there any way of over-riding the theme, so the expression uses my colour for the Hyperlink link and after colour?

 

Thanks

    Hello  @Sharpharp1 


     


    To make this change for all hyperlinks across your solutions, I would recommend creating a theme:

     

    https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/devref/5.3/default.htm#Themes/Custom-Themes.htm

     

    If you would like it just to be on one view/form, please use the below (please use this on a datalabel control with literal=true:


     


    You can just change the colour to what you would like for it to be:


     


    <style>



    .theme-entry a, .theme-entry a:visited {





    1. color: blue !important; 




    }

    </style>

     


     

    Regards,

    Michelle

    Hello,

    I was able to set a custom style for a hyperlink in a form using the following:

    1. Two data labels:
    DataLabel - with the following expression:


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


    DataLabel1 - with the following expression:


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


     


    2. On both data labels, make sure to check Literal and uncheck Prevent XSS.


    When you run this, the form will show the style applied on the text 'K2':





    Hope this helps.
