Hi,

I'm manually calling a view to create list of checkboxes for a form. One field in my node is a select list (1 | First, 2 | Second - for example), if I preview the view in the views ui it shows the value 'First' for my field.

However, when I manually call the view with views_get_view, add any args, then call view->execute(), in the result I get the key ie. 1 & 2 instead of First & Second...

Most likely another rookie mistake, but I've spent a while looking into it with no joy, so I thought I'd ask the experts. Thanks for your time and I'd appreciate any feedback.

Yes, the result contains the raw database keys. What you probalby want is to call $view->render and then look at $view->style_plugin->rendered_fields

This is usually useful when we need to get the path of an image field.

Thanks!
