John> <% IF a.folder() %> Folder: <% a.folder() %>, <% END %>
John> <% IF a.range() %> Range: <% a.range() %> <% END %>
John> </a> <% newurl %><br>
John> <% END %>
John> </ul>
John> <% END %>
And it turns out it's really something to be better handled in the
DBIx side of the house, and I've managed to fix it using an accessor
override (see the DBIx FAQ and Goodies pages) which will probably
break future use of dbicdump, but since this is a simple readonly
site, I don't care.
So basically, in the lib/Carey/Schema/Result/Account.pm file I had to
add some quick bits of code and all is well now.
Cheers,
John
