[FX.php List] Creating formatting from FX

[Steve Winter]

Really...?? I can use CSS to style the way content is displayed within
fields in FMP...?? tell me more, this would be extremely useful I'd just
never heard it was possible...???

(Either that or you've picked up the wrong end of the thread ;-)

Cheers
Steve
