The usual way to debug these problems is to work out what is going on at
the command line. I suspect if you do that, you'll find that the
object_list looks like [<Event: ...>]. So just dumping it into the HTML
will lead to your browser interpreting the angle brackets as an HTML
element, and just swallowing it up, since it's not a valid element.
Often, if something isn't rendering as you expect, view the HTML source
to check what has really been returned.
