Dear list,

I have an app which is used for compiling agendas. The output is an html page 
with the agenda formatted in tables, etc. Currently I just build an NSString 
containing all the html. Clearly this is limited.

I'd like to extend the app to have templates to allow for different agenda 
layouts. Currently I'm thinking of some sort of html template with tags in 
there which I can replace with new html code when building the agenda. My 
problem is that I don't see how to handle loops. I want these templates to be 
creatable by the user (if they wish) so there needs to be a way to loop over 
elements of the agenda and format the result (the user may make a table, or 
just a list, or whatever they want). 

Does anyone know of a way to do this, or a better way to approach this problem? 
I started thinking about trying to write a DSL and use maybe parsekit to handle 
that. But I've never done that before and it looks a little daunting.

Thoughts, comments, advice, welcomed.

Martin
