The problem:
I'm customizing the CombinedAddress UIHandler to use physicalDeliveryOfficeName instead of city. I've done this successfully, but now I'm looking for the XSL (I'm guessing) that will prevent the physicalDeliveryOfficeName from being shown on the user details page if physicalDeliveryOfficeName is included in the CombinedAddress. This seems to happen for state and postal code.

The solution:
To hide your attribute you need to associate it with the CombinedAddress UI Handler. The Address UI Handler hides all attributes associated with it EXCEPT "Street", which it then uses do display the rest of the address.

You'll simply add your attribute to the UIHandlers.XML file (Not the XSL file). Then, go into the admin utility and select your attribute to part of the CombinedAddress Handler.
