Notice that cell2 is a child of row2.
Now try using this data hash:


#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'amrita/template'

data3 = {
   :cell1 => "Cell 1",
   :row2 => {
     :cell2 => "Cell 2"
   }
}

template = Amrita::TemplateFile.new("bah.templ")

template.expand(STDOUT, data3)

The result of data3 should be what you want.
I hope this makes sense.
