<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Now that I know
how to change the background colour using script, I now want to allow the user

<br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I've added a
colour picker to my entry page (mainPage.addColourPicker), added a

that listens for the colourChange event to be broadcast by the mainPage icon.
The script attached to this event should then set the fill colour
