Thank you! That worked well. I must've really been over thinking it.
However, this does lead to another question: now I'm putting in the actual
content as follows:
{% for i in range(1, idmcount|int +1) %}
{{ users[i].uid }},{{ users[i].uidnumber }}
{% endfor %}
This works fine, but the values appear to be in (what I think) is the json
format. For example:
[u'name1'],[u'1111']
How do I strip out the "u'" and have just:
name,1111
Thanks,
Harry
