As I understand it, the current code only adds the extra item to the list if $field is a key in the $fieldspec array. The keys of the fieldspec array come from the main table to be displayed, and, in my case include fklocation_id. However, the $field comes from the lookup table, and, in my case, is location_id. Therefore, the extra item will not be added, and will only be added if I renamed my fklocation_id column to location_id.
This, according to the previous post, should not be needed, and is therefore a bug in the code.
The value of location_id does appear as a lower level in the $fieldspec data structure, as the name of the optionlist for fklocation_id. Should the code check for this variable?
At present I do not understand why this check is in the code at all, but there is probably a very good reason for it, and I would not want to try altering it without understanding that reason!
