If you tag is a container tag it will have some text in it's block. If you want that text to be run through the templating engine or processed in some other way you will have to retrieve it. You can retrieve the contained text with the block method. We also provide a convenience method called ->parse_block($tagid, $params) which runs the templater on the block for you with the specified tagid or params both of which can be left undef if desired.
