Part of the problem here is that you cannot loop through a string (which is
what a DTML Document returns). You can split the string and loop through
that or more efficiently create a lines property on an object and loop
through that. Something like:
property: Course, type: lines
<dtml-in Course>
<dtml-let item=sequence-item>
<dtml-if "item[7] = '-'">
....
</dtml-if>
</dtml-let>
</dtml-in>
