+[[!template id="note" text="""
+Simply copied this from my website
+[[http://www.camco.ie/code/ikiwiki,3.20120202,20120313a/]]
+feel free to reformat / delete"""]]
+
+The following re-write allows for multiple definitions of the
+same tag value in a template definition. This, in turn, allows
+us to use TMPL_LOOPS in our template directives; all-be-it in a
+rather limited way.
+
+I would, personally, only use this feature for very basic loops
+and, although nested loops *might* be possible (with a little
+more tinkering) it think any attempt would be better served by
+[[Kathyrn Anderson's|http://www.katspace.org/]] [[field et
+al.|http://ikiwiki.info/plugins/contrib/field/]] plugin.
+
+It *is* (primarily) intended to allow insertion of organised CSS
+blocks (i.e. `<div>`) through template directives (since i can't
+seem to get HTML and Markup to mix the way I want).
+
+[[!template id="note" text="""
+Apologies for the re-write. I struggle reading perl code that
+I didn't write and (probably too often) re-format to reduce my
+head-aches. Anyway it didn't make sense to post the patch since
+everything's changed now.

+
+NB: this *should* be 100% backwards compatible.
