This works. So can I manipulate certain elements of the returned function1 dictionary in the view before or as they are loaded into 'myid'? Basically, my function1 returns a timestamp and a hyperlink as a result. I want to be able to make the returned url a hyperlink as well. Plus as I continue I am sure I will have a need to change returned values.
