Question

I’m trying to get clean output of fields in order to obtain semantic code.
In the default template generated by the Views module the snippet which outputs the field is:

<?php print $field->content; ?>

But a lot of markup is generated along with the value of the field.
Is there a way to get the field value directly?

I’m using Drupal 7, It seems like the old method:

$fields['field_name']->content;

is not functioning anymore.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Answer 1

Semantic Views is a great module which gives a great control over the views output markup. But I realized that my problem was related to the field markup.

I found a video tutorial. It helped me a lot and hope could help others too.
