Changing Field Style for Problem Tasks if due date is passed

[Joe Taylor]

I'm trying to change the font color of the due dates in the list view of PTASKS if the due date is past, but no matter what I try it doesn't seem to work.

Here's what I have now:

Table: Problem Task [problem_task]

Field Name: Due date

Value: javascript:gs.dateDiff(current.due_date.getDisplayValue(),gs.nowDateTime(),true) <  0 ;

Style:  color:red;

What am I doing wrong?

Also, where can if find a comprehensive list of styles  (colors, background, font sizes, etc.) ?

Hi Joe

Can you try changing value to this format. Please ignore if you already tried it

javascript: var answer = gs.dateDiff(current.due_date.getDisplayValue(),gs.nowDateTime(),true) <  0; answer;

Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion.  This didn't work either.  I think my issue is more fundamental.  I tried just changing the value to just "true" to see if my style rule was even getting applied.  This didn't work either.  So I must be missing something basic to make the style rules active or something.

Use this Value-

javascript: var answer = (current.due_date.getDisplayValue() <= (new GlideDateTime().getDisplayValueInternal())); answer;

I tested it works.

I usually check all exisiting style shees for reference and some you need to try if not already used in system.
