The new list is on SourceForge.  You must be using an old version of
HTML::Template!  Upgrade and see the docs for the new list details.

Right.  HTML::Template processes include calls during the parse, so
recursive includes won't work.

I recommend you flatten your structure before passing it to
HTML::Template.  Instead of building loops within loops, pass a
'depth' parameter and use that to build your HTML.  There are, of
course, other ways to do it, but I've found this works well and is
easy to maintain.
