A silly trip through the innards of views theming: output plain link with no HTML
Key words and phrases
theme div class field-item avoid skip solution views do not group multiple valuesTags
Description
Spoiler: if you want a plain value of a field to be output plain without surrounding <div class="field-item"> tags, make sure to select "Do not group multiple values".
Now for the masochists, let's follow how I found this out the really, really, really hard way!
Amazing what's available to a simple view in Drupal 5.
A views-list-agaric_view_name.tpl.php with the following sole contents:
<?php
print '<pre>';
print_r(get_defined_vars());
print '</pre>';
?>Outputs the below. Remember that what you print is already all wrapped in <li> tags.
The easy access to available fields is at the bottom.

Related, might as well patch all at once:

It's not Link's fault:
quicksketch - March 12, 2008 - 12:38
CCK is the one adding that wrapped DIV around the result. I think it's put in there when the default code output by views theming wizard calls views_theme_field('views_handle_field', $field['queryname'], $fields, $field, $node, $view);. Prior to that the field is properly just the URL. I don't think there's anything at the link.module level that can be done.
<?php
if ($formatter == 'plain') {
drupal_set_message($item['url']);
drupal_set_message('<pre>'.print_r($item,TRUE).'</pre>');
return check_plain($item['url']);
}
?>Pure and innocent:
<div class="messages status">
<ul>
<li>http://www.plwc.org/PLWC/Library/Podcasts/2007_Breast_Cancer_Symposium.mp3</li>
<li><pre>Array
(

)My apologies to Link, this makes it easy to fix on theme layer...
some drupal_set_message output to see what's happening:
<?php

$args = func_get_args();
$function = array_shift($args);
$field_name = array_shift($args);
$view = array_pop($args);
drupal_set_message('function: '. $function);
drupal_set_message('<br />field name: '. $field_name);
drupal_set_message('<pre>'.print_r($view,TRUE).'</pre>');
if (!($func = theme_get_function($function . '_' . $view->name . '_' . $field_name))) {
if (!($func = theme_get_function($function . '_' . $field_name))) {
$func = theme_get_function($function);
}
}
if ($func) {
return call_user_func_array($func, $args);
}

)So way up there you can see it provided two functions to try in the views handler-- the first was very general (views_handle_field) and the second very specific (node_data_field_resource_link_field_resource_link_url)
Following the general first:
function theme_views_handle_field($fields, $field, $data) {
}
<?php
/**
* Themeable function to handle displaying a specific field.
*/
function theme_views_handle_field($fields, $field, $data) {
$info = $fields[$field['fullname']];
drupal_set_message($field['handler']);
?>...
Output for a bunch of views:
views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group views_handler_field_nodelink content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_ungroup content_views_field_handler_ungroup content_views_field_handler_ungroup content_views_field_handler_ungroup content_views_field_handler_ungroup content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group content_views_field_handler_group
Culprit:
<?php
function theme_content_view_multiple_field($items, $field, $data) {
foreach ($items as $item) {
$output .= '<div class="field-item">'. $item .'</div>';
}
return $output;
}
?>And, behold, simply selecting "Do not group multiple values" for that field display in the edit view form solved all problems in the world.
Note:
<?php
function phptemplate_node_data_field_resource_link_field_resource_link_url($fields, $field, $data) {
return check_plain($data->$field['queryname']);
drupal_set_message('<pre>'.print_r($data,TRUE).'</pre>');
}
?>Did not get called, and I expected that it would. So I learned very little in this particular trip through the views theming rabbit hole.
