In D7 how do I get JUST the value of a field in a view field template?
If you have devel installed then add dpm($field); to the template and see if the field array contains the value itself (if I remember right - it isn't). The second step (if the field array doesn't contain the value) will be to use dpm($view); ,and in the view array you have the value for sure (I think it is something like $view-&gt;$row['field_name'][0]['value'] )
