New Columns Question

[ctromb]

I understand displaying data in columns when it comes to recordcount and mutiple records in a database, but what If I need to display 25 fields in 5 columns from 1 record in my database.

Try something like this:

<table width=&quot;100%&quot; border=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot; cellspacing=&quot;2&quot;>
<tr>
<cfparam name=&quot;attributes.TDcounter&quot; default=&quot;0&quot;>
<cfoutput query=&quot;whatever&quot;>
<td align=&quot;center&quot; valign=&quot;top&quot;>
#OutputStuffGoesHere#

<cfset attributes.TDcounter = attributes.TDcounter + 1>
<cfif attributes.TDcounter EQ 5>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<cfset attributes.TDcounter = 0>
<cfelse>
</td>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</tr>
</table>


This will basically output five columns, and then start a new row.

Hope this Helps!
