Hi Alan,
What is your purpose for using two converters?
Not quite sure if we can do this, but I just wondering why you need two converters, you want to convert original data to temproy one and convert again to the final data? If so you can do something like this:
<span id="loginName"
data-win-bind="innerText: name; style.color: userType LoginData.userTypeToColor">
</span>
WinJS.Binding.processAll(document.getElementById("loginDisplay"), LoginData.login);
WinJS.Namespace.define("LoginData", {
//Data Object
login : { name: "myname", id: "12345678", userType: "admin" },
//Converter function
userTypeToColor: WinJS.Binding.converter(function (type) {
//inner converter function.
