I am building a comment system where I have the ability to edit posts
for moderation. To get the data out of the MySQL database and assign
it to a variable I use "author = db.query(SELECT * FROM items WHERE id
= $id", vars = {"id": id})"

This queries the database as shown in the cli server (ran with
python2), but it returns the value "<web.utils.IterBetter instance at
0x9dc44ec>".

I need this to be a string (in this case, the author). I have tried
"$author.__name__" in the templates, "author = str(type(author))" and
"author = type(author).__name__" in my main.py.

Any insight as to how to do this?
