Is it possible to to tell CodeCharge to not change specific lines? I'm doing a style hack to make some colored statusbars in a grid but everytime i do something in design view, it just removes whatever i've written.

Are you using CSS or are you hard coding the styles??? My suggestion would be to create a CSS file and configure it to your tastes (select it as the default CSS).
Also, if CCS is changing your code you might want to contact support ( http://support.yessoftware.com ) to see if that is what it is suppose to do.

the problem is that the editor tries to be 'intelligent' - in other words it is repairing the HTML without even asking you (and assuming that it knows best) - I absolutely hate the feature; and there is no way of turning it off
report it to support - hopefully if a few of us complain - they'll rethink their strategy on this feature

and will have to answer all the questions about HTML not functioning after
some editing.
@Larsg,
What is it you are trying to accomplish?
I am in the process of fiddling with the CalenderBuilder and have
successfully done:
a/ coloring a cell depending on its event content
b/displaying a colored bar in the event
No style hassle just a techique based on "Tips-and-solution, alternate rows,
the easy way" for solution (a) and
displaying a pre-fabricated bar image in several colours with a small fixed
size, displaying it in the cell.
The Inline style I tried and will solve soon, but I choose the other
approach 'cause it does the job and saves time.

What i'm trying to do is this: For each row do a check on two values and output a color name to a text box based on the result of the forementioned check. This way i can do style="background-color:{textbox1}" on the textbox itself to change the color based on the first check. This works like a charm as a coloured status system, until i change something in design view and codecharge changes the line back to something else.
I realize this is the only way of making sure the design view doesnt get corrupted, but why bother having the option to edit the html then?

Did you take a look at the calendar www.dubbellul.nl/calendar ?
That works beautifully, no problems with design/html or whatever.
Now let's be clear You are talking about a Grid and you want to color 1
cell:
Open in Design mode.
Find the <td> of the cell you want to color later.
Insert a space to get <td >, position cursor just before > and in toolbox
choose Forms->A Label
Give the label an appropiate name {rowcolor}
In the source of the Grid Before Show, put
$Container->rowcolor->SetValue(""); to initially clear the Label.
In the Grid's BeforeShowRow depending on your condition put :
if (somecondition)
$Container->rowcolor->SetValue( ' style="backgroundcolor: yellow;" ' );
Nothing to it, works tested, tried and proven.
And if you know where to put the lable it works in Grids, Record Form and so
on.
If I want to know what the coreect syntax is, I just do it hardcoded in the
HTML first, Preview and itterate until I like it.
Then apply this technique.
