[Templates] closing a nested list correctly on the last item

[Stephen Stewart]

Hello,

I've been using the examples in the badger book for navigation elements
built from an XML sitemap. In my case I've been trying to build the
navigation with an HTML list:

<ul>
  <li>apples</li>
  <li>oranges</li>
    <ul>
      <li>clementine</li>
      <li>mandarin</li>
      <li>satsuma</li>
      <li>tangerine</li>
    </ul>
</ul>

However I have a problem when the last item in the outer list has sub
items in the version I've created. If I use loop.last in menu/nest (from
the Badger Book example) the outer <ul> will close before the inner <ul>
is built:

<ul>
  <li>apples</li>
  <li>oranges</li>
</ul>
    <ul>
      <li>clementine</li>
      <li>mandarin</li>
      <li>satsuma</li>
      <li>tangerine</li>
    </ul>

My menu/nest:
[% IF loop.first %]
<ul>
[%- END -%]

<li [% IF loop.first %]class=3D"first"[%- END -%] [% IF loop.last &&
!loop.first %]class=3D"last"[%- END -%]><a href=3D"[% link.url %]"
[%- " class=3D\"$link.class\""
  IF link.class
-%]><span>[%- link.text -%] </span></a></li>
[% IF loop.last %]
</ul>
[%- END -%]

If anyone has been here before I'd be grateful of some help. (I don't
have the badger book to hand, but I believe the example I was working
from was about page 450, Chapter 11.)

Many thanks,

Stephen
