But I think instead of parsing the strings manually you might want to use some engine for that that supports foreach, if and others operations. Just from the top of my head: <a href="http://www.stringtemplate.org/about.html" rel="nofollow">StringTemplate</a> should be ideal for this. Or maybe something like <a href="http://www.castleproject.org/others/nvelocity/index.html" rel="nofollow">NVelocity</a> Nice.

Yes, you are quite right. I did think about nestedness, but didn't test it. It should be a relatively quick fix. Doh. Yes, you are quite right. I did think about nestedness, but didn’t test it.

I can see one area with room for improvement... nested foreach statements :) You need to check if the expandblock contains a new {foreach}-statements, and match them with their ending-statements.
