looping list problem

[Jon Bowlas]

Ok so I changed it to this: 

attobject = context.get_attobject()
navstring = context.get_uclattribute(attobject, 'ucl_navhide')
hiddennavelements = navstring.split(' ')
for hiddennavelement in hiddennavelements:
    yield hiddennavelements

But I get the following error- Line 5: Yield statements are not allowed.

Any ideas

did you perhaps mean to use "yield" instead of "return" ?
