[Laszlo-dev] Debugger font color

[Henry Minsky]

There was some issue I recall in how HTML text works; there are two
equivalent ways to set html style info, either using a TextFormat object, or
by manually outputting <font> tags in the html text content.
I remember there was something odd about how the html text field would try
to automatically close HTML tags for you. So if you had HTML text that you
set which was "<font color=#ff0000>foobar", then when you
ask it for the value of the TextField.htmlText, it would insert a </font>
closing tag automatically, but it seemed like sometimes there was some
ambiguity about how it did that.. can't remember anything more specific.
