hi all. i know this doesn't sound like a superb idea, but i may have
to do something like it.

i have data coming from the db and being displayed to the user as
instructions. "do this," "go there," etc.

i'd like to have that data executed in the environment, so i could say
"do this, {{=user.first_name}}." but when i say
{{=XML(instruction.step)}} it spits out the raw text but doesn't
execute it.

this only happens for db info that we put in, no user data. is there a
way to run it through the web2py interpreter before displaying it to
the user?

thanks, and happy holidays.

matt
