ScribeDifferencesBetween capability and WebDirect

[KarlLaw]

In testing my application on WebDirect, I noticed that the various coloring visualizations generated by ScribeDifferencesBetween do not appear.  I am guessing this is due to WebDirect's lack of support for rich text formatting.  If this is correct, are there any workarounds to simulate this behavior on WebDirect?  Or, if my assumption is incorrect, is there some key piece I am missing to fully implement this functionality on the web?

After doing quite a bit of research online, I think I have resolved this issue myself.  I changed the edit box in question to a web viewer and set its web address to the following:

 

"data:text/html," & GetAsCSS ( <table name>::<field name> )

 

I encapsulated that within a couple Substitute() functions in order to modify the resulting CSS string to get its formatting to match the rest of the screen, but that wasn't too difficult.  Unfortunately, this solution doesn't seem to work on IE, but I think I can live with that for now.
