I created a new structure and am trying to get the value of one of the fields (a radio button).  I have three possible values (right, left, center) and I want to do something based on that but it returns something along the lines of [" right"] as the value.  None of the other fields "wrap" the value.  Is there a way to get the raw value from a radio button in a freemarker template?
