Sorry about that previous post!  I accidentally sent the email, I just love
coding in a bad browser based email client!




What I have done in the past is this: 


<#-- DEFINE THE MACRO -->
<#macro layout>
    <html>
        <body>
        	<div id="head"><#nested "head" /></div>
        	<div id="content"><#nested "content" /></div>
        </body>
    </html>
</#macro>



<#-- NOW, CALL THE MACRO -->
<@layout ; section>
	<#if section = "head">
		Write your header section here.
	<#elseif section = "content" >
		Write your content section here.
	<#else>
		Unsupported section??
	</#if>
</@layout>
