Thanks all, got it working.

Except, when I followed Bradley's instructions, it set the attribute
properly, but it totally mangled the objects I was iterating over. I
have no idea why, some of the content just didn't render, the objects
rendered out of order, etc. I had fetched them from a Datamapper
store.

Anyway, the problem was fixed by copying the elements of the "@posts"
array into a new array, and iterating over that object instead. I have
no idea what the actual problem is, but it's working perfectly now.

Thanks again for all the help!
