Display Select List in different colors

HarryFSep 9 2014 — edited Sep 10 2014

I am trying to display items in a select list with different colors. I did this in a tabular form. I also tried it in a page item.

I tried the technique on this blog that looked like this:

SELECT color_num || color AS D

, dispatch_color_pk ||'"style="background-color:' || color AS R FROM color

I tried it defining the field in the tabular form as a select list and I tried it as a Standard Report Column using APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST_FROM_QUERY to build it. Same result.

If I inspect the element it looks correct:

But if I display it in HTML or do a copy/paste it looks like this:

I tried chr(34) in place of the quote, same problem.

I tried this in the latest Firefox and the latest Chrome, same problem.

Am I missing a setting to get it to just accept the quote?

We are on 4.2.2.00.11
