<p>I've been caught by that before. Try <font face="monospace,
monospace">[% entries.$id.item('_id') %]. For some reason (would
interested to learn what), TT doesn't seem to be able to cope
with leading underscores in data structures. You can prove
entries contains data using:</font></p>
<font face="monospace, monospace">[% USE Dumper(Indent=1) %]</font><br>
<font face="monospace, monospace">[% FOREACH id IN entries %]</font><br>
<font face="monospace, monospace"> <pre>[% Dumper.dump(id)
%]</pre></font><br>
[% END %]<br>

or just <font face="monospace, monospace">[% Dumper.dump(entries)
%]<br>
