}}Ending tag for the byline
 </onlyinclude>

Want to have the byline tags as a standard template to make this easier to insert.
There is a problem with having "<onlyinclude>" in a template.
Have tried many different points from web that people say fixes this, but it doesn't seem to for me.

This is the template, {{bylinebegin}}:
 <onlyinclude>{{#ifeq:{{{transcludesection|byline}}}|byline| 

Opening bracket is "&-l-t-;", without the hypens bw each letter.


This is the template, {{bylineend}}:
 }}</onlyinclude>
