[support] Unserializing Data for Use in a View

[Shai Gluskin]

Hi Cory,

Thanks.  I think we were writing at the same time.

Unserializing the $output won't work, because the $output comes with some
other stuff, like html.

What works is this:

$data = unserialize($row->{$field->field_alias});
print $data['attributes']['Attending'][0];

To all, I apologize for not quoting the array keys in my previous "I got it"
post.

But thank you.

I've posted an issue for documentation at the Views queue, suggesting a
change in the explanatory text of views-view-field.tpl.php to be explicit
that the snippet is literal.
