Example of Block Syntaxes
These examples illustrate the different available syntaxes for Merge-Blocks.
-> Absolute Syntax:
The block is defined by a beginning TBS tag and an ending TBS tag.
France
England
Spain
Italy
Germany
-> Relative Syntax:
The block is defined relatively to the HTML (or XML) tags that surround the TBS tag.
Only a single TBS tag defines the block, instead of a couple of TBS tags.

-> Simplified Syntax:
The bloc definition is included inside a TBS field. It's much more simple to write.

-> On a text line:
Use the symbol "_" to define a block on a simple text line, independently of HTML tags.
France
England
Spain
Italy
Germany
-> With Concatenation:
It's possible to define a block on several following HTML tags.
For this, you just have to indicate the tags ton concatenate by separating them with "+".
In the example below, the block is bounded by two rows.

-> With Encapsulation:
It's possible to define a block on an HTML tag of a higher level.
For this, you just have to set the encapsulation level using parentheses.
In the example below, the block is bounded by the pink row.
-> Without Block Definition:
If the block definition is omitted, then only the first record is merged.
