(of course you could also do this:

<span class="ghosthax" style="color:{vb:raw post.field21}">Status:</span> {vb:raw post.onlinestatus}</div>

then you wouldn't need the classes).

Even better would this work?

<span class="ghosthax-{vb:raw post.field21}">Status:</span>

Then change the options in the Profile field to the colour name, like blue.

Is that right?
