Creating repeating regions

A repeating region is a section of a template that can be duplicated as often as desired in a template-based page. You typically use repeating regions with tables; however, you can define a repeating region for other page elements as well.

Repeating regions enable you to control your page layout by repeating certain items, such as a catalog item and description layout, or a row for data such as a list of items.

There are two repeating region template objects you can use: repeating region and repeating table.
