Thanks Dan and Mike!

I didn't initiate the question but I learned two better ways to add marc fields.

I hope that both methods and examples get added to the "Customizing the OPAC" section of the Evergreen Docbook documentation. This is an incredible feature of Evergreen!

Regards,
Robert

It actually gets even simpler than this.  For the examples you show
here you don't even need the formatter element.  Just add:

<tr>
  <td nowrap='nowrap' class='rdetail_desc'>Statement of Responsibility</td>
  <td type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=245]
subfield[code=c]' class='rdetail_item'> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td nowrap='nowrap' class='rdetail_desc'>Call Number</td>
  <td type='opac/slot-data' query='datafield[tag=050] > subfield'
class='rdetail_item'> </td>
</tr>

BibTemplate will supply a default formatter that simply inserts the
full text content of the nodes your query specifies.

UPDATE: I see that Dan gave an example that unhides a hidden version.
It's a style decision on how dynamic/consistent/inconsistent/whatever
you want the page you're drawing to be, IMO, but either way, it's easy
to do.  :)
