Re: toArray was DB_DataObjects and generating search filters

Yes, it returns the object. This is not the nicest way to use in templates, though :) Just replace > $list[] = $this; with $list[] = $this->toArray(); and you'll have the arrays in the list. The prettiest way would be $list = $this->toTemplateArray(); (or call it as you like it) and write that function toTemplateArray() to return $this, $this->toArray() or anything you want to use it.
