ezmatrix.tpl override problems

I think you have mixed a couple of tags that should be separate.

Try something like this:

<tr>
{sequence name=Seq loop=array(tanbg,tanbg,lightbluebg,lightbluebg)}
{section name=Rows loop=$matrix.rows.sequential} 
<td class="{$:sequence}">
{section name=Columns loop=$Rows:item.columns}
{$Rows:Columns:item|wash(xhtml)}&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
{sequence name=Seq}
{delimiter}
</td>
<td class="{$:sequence}">
{/delimiter}
{/section}
</td>
{delimiter}
</tr>
<tr>
{/delimiter}
{/section}
</tr>

The code may not be perfect, but it should get you closer.

The second {$:sequence} should result in a template error/warning. You're using the 'name' attribute of the section command, which means you're using namespaces. The $: is a special reference because it refers to the current namespace (current meaning the most specific namespace where your code is run).

In simple terms, this means that the first {$:sequence} actually means {$Rows:sequence}, which is correct. The second {$:sequence} is in a more specific namespace and is translated into {$Rows:Columns:sequence}, but the Columns namespace doesn't have a sequence variable.

So you should change the second {$:sequence} to {$Rows:sequence}.
