      In your calling template you do something like:

      {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.file link_text='Download'}

      Then in your attribute template you can access this variable by doing something like:

      {$link_text}

    If you are displaying the image datatype (not objectrelation as the normal article class contains) you have the possiblility to set the size with image_class. Like this:

    {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.myimage image_class='large'}

    Where the sizes are defined in image.ini.

    Ok... The first thing to do is to override ALL those templates to avoid that stupid carriage return that put the code on a new line from the {* DO NOT EDIT blablabla *} comment because it's a white space in HTML.
    the <p> story is also a matter of overriding the associated template.

      Sorry I was a little bit nervous. But it's true that for really controled plain text output (csv,xhtml source,...), attribute_view_gui is nearly unuseful.

      The <p> seems to not come from the attribute_view_gui but from Online Editor, doesn't it? content.input.input_xml contents <p>your text</p><p>&nbsp;</p>, suspect.
      Can someone confirm this?
