angularjs - Angular compile template error on local project and jsFiddle, but working fine in Plunker -

i've noticed angular controller growing , have been trying refactor , use directives , services.

however, on 1 scenario, trying create directive appears working fine in plunker, seeing following error in local application , in jsfiddle:

error: [$compile:tplrt] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.2.8/$compile/tplrt?p0=getemptycells&p1= 

plunker link: http://plnkr.co/edit/e11za8lkvoptgtqw2hee?p=preview

jsfiddle link (error can seen in firebug): http://jsfiddle.net/oampz/8hq3r/14/

directive:

app.directive('getemptycells', function () { return {     restrict: 'ea',     replace: true,      template: '<td ng-repeat="emptycell in getemptycells(payments.details.length)" class="empty">no payment</td>',     scope: {       'payments' : '=getemptycells'     },     link: function (scope, elem, attr) {       scope.getemptycells = function (len) {         var emptycells = [];         (var = 0; < 12 - len; i++) {           emptycells.push(i);         }         return emptycells;       };     } }; }); 

html:

<table>     <tr>with directive:</tr>     <tr ng-repeat="payments in mypayments">             <th>{{payments.name}}</th>             <td ng-repeat="paymentamount in payments.details.slice(0, 12)">{{ paymentamount }}</td>             <td get-empty-cells="payments"></td>     </tr> </table> 

when remove:

template: '<td ng-repeat="emptycell in getemptycells(payments.details.length)" class="empty">no payment</td>', 

the error disappears, naturally expected functionality/output not produced.

i'm confused @ cause this.

i think problem jsfiddle creates. service jsfiddle or plunker have trouble emulating real setup while still providing features embedded output, external file loading etc. solutions seem work better others, , while i've been loving user of jsfiddle long - angularjs projects seem work lot better in plunker, angular template can select @ start.

i think question why doesn't work question of why jsfiddle can't make work, , though i'd hate answer question "that doesn't matter", think should focus on solving problems , not jsfiddle's problem , use service (like plunker) ;)

edit: if guess (generally not idea so) i'd jsfiddle somehow messes template adding perhaps comment node template, breaking "one rootnode" requirement angular template.
