# isdecorate Element

Decorate the enclosed content with the contents of the specified (decorator) template.

## Syntax

```
<isdecorate template = template_name> //required
  ...
</isdecorate>
```

- template = template_name

  - : _Allowed data type:_ string or expression.

    `template_name` is the name of the decorator template that is used to decorate the contents.

## Purpose

The decorator template has the tag `<isreplace/>` identifying where the decorated content shall be included. Typically, only one tag (`<isreplace/>`) is used in the decorator template. However, multiple or zero `<isreplace/>` tags can also be used. If the decorating template doesn't have an `<isreplace/>` tag, the decorated content is omitted from the resultant output. If the decorator template has multiple `<isreplace/>` tags, the content to be decorated will be included for each `<isreplace/>` tag.

A typical use case is to decorate the content body with a header and footer.

## Example

The decorator tags can be nested to an arbitrary depth, for example:

```
<isdecorate template="mytemplate">
	...
	<isdecorate template="mytemplate">
	...
	</isdecorate>
</isdecorate>
```

Different decorator templates can be used in different `<isdecorate/>` tags, both in nested and non-nested scenarios.
