Hi,  
i have the following error.  
i use a Template for a Button. (so i can use other Icons etc.)  
The template looks like:

```auto
<button class="single" ng-click="send(msg)" type="button"><span class="{{msg.icon}} {{msg.state}}"></span></button>

```

i inject msg.payload etc via an function node.

the Problem is:  
when i use this template multible times in one Group node red restarts.  
in the log file is see the following errors:

16 Jul 12:31:01 - [red] Uncaught Exception:

Post the output you get when you start node red from the terminal. That will show us what versions of node-red, node etc you are using. Do whatever you do to cause the crash so that is included also.
