I''m doing some serializing in my model and the table fields are setup as "text" types, yet the output looks sort of strange - Category ID --- - "2" - "6" - "8" - "" - "" State ID --- - "3" - "6" - "7" - "9" - "10" Term ID --- - "3" - "8" - "2" - "7" - "" Looks weird or no ? Is all I need maybe is some regex to strip the hyphens and do some nice formatting ? I''m also going to be passing these values into a query so would clean up be necessary then as well ?
