I'm trying to do the following in an erltl file:

<% case Authenticated of
false -> "";
true -> %>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<% do_something() %>
</td>
</tr>
<% end %>

But when I do, I get:

(node@host)14> erlyweb:compile(Appdir,[native,debug_info,
{erlydb_driver,mnesia},{auto_compile,true}]).
debug:erlyweb_compile:364: Compiling ErlTL file "post_view"
** exited: {error,{parse_error,{1,
erl_parse,
["syntax error before: ",["'.'"]]}}} **

Am I doing something wrong, or is that just not supported?

In ErlTL, the content between <% and %> must be a complete Erlang
expression, not a fragment thereof. I've thought about supporting the
kind of usage you've shown, but doing so will probably require a
rewrite of the ErlTL compiler. The best of doing this right now is
using a function, e.g.

<%@ row(false) %>
<%@ row(true) %>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<% do_something() %>
</td>
</tr>

This has worked well enough for me so far, but I agree that your
approach can make it easier to read the code and figure out which
markup goes where.
