Change color of javascript text in placeholder

[STS]

I'd like to implement an automatic copyright date change in my page footer. I drew a placeholder square and I'm using the following javascript snippet to replace the HTML Code (Body) to do so:

&copy; 2006<script>new Date().getFullYear()>2006&&document.write("-"+new Date().getFullYear());</script>, My Company.

My footer is black, so I'd like to change the color of the output text to white. I do have a style assigned for footer text that is white, but I don'[t know how to assign this style to the javascript text. I'm not a javascript expert so any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

You can use:

<span style="color:white;">&copy; 2006<script>new Date().getFullYear()>2006&&document.write("-"+new Date().getFullYear());</script>, My Company.</span>

Thanks Acorn. I should have known that. You've shown me the way. Now I can similarly modify font, size to match my desired style. Happy New Year.

If you create a text box with "© 2006, My Company." and to that add a Placeholder body of your original code then you can change the boilerplate text font and style within Xara.

The trick is just to replace the rectangle with a text box.
