Changing a control colors in Siebel (field color changing in Siebel)

Here we know that we give a name for maximum fields in caption string override. But why will give that Siebel needs data to be centralized so that we use a caption. if the definition of the field does not exist in the repository then u have to give a caption string override Even u can try for the buttons, columns or controls even for the buttons like New Edit Query buttons and etc just add this value or html tag in caption string override then it works. Another purpose u can change the colors of the html as shown in figure. Note I was tried only with Siebel 7.7 version

<label style="background-color:yellow">fieldname</label> <span style="background-color: yellow">fieldname</span> This both are works same (Please enter the value in caption string override so it works I just forgot copy that thing)

To select font color and font name and font size uses this html tag in caption string override. <font face="fontname" size=24 color='red>fieldname</font> <b> is used to bold the text My client demanded that when he mouse over on the particular field then the field text is highlighted. We did in following way .

SiebelGuide.com

When he is mouse on the test2 then the field is highlighted as this way <font onmouseover="style.color='red'" onmouseout="style.color='black'">fieldname or controlname</font>

then when you mouseover on the test2 field then color of the test2 field is changed. If a field name is too longer then u follow this here <br/> statement helps to go new line field <br/>name <br/>is too long put this tag in caption string override.then works as shown in figure

even u can add font color and etc for the field if I will get any ideas I will surely share with u. Nice to meet u friends. Bye. Please share ur ideas. With comments. I want to mouse over the control it show shows description of the field iam trying now .
