Yaron, thanks for the suggestion! I'm actually looking into that right now.
It doesn't seem to work, but for a different reason. The <> signs in the
template are all repleaced by &lgt signs!

I was adding an example of this but you preceded me and you found
the same problem! However, <table><tr> and <td> tags are allowed
in MediaWiki. In fact I verified that it is possible to create a table
through
them. Again then, it seems to be a delicate issue of templates having
their quirks! I'm looking into it but so far I'm finding nothing about it...
