Search through the data to get the largest length for the item in the
first column.

Then when you are doing your loop, do <cfset Variables.myTempFirstCol =
FirstColValue & repeatString("&nbsp", Variables.lenMax -
len(FirstColValue) />

Then output #Variables.myTempFirstCol#|#Variables.mySecondCol#

Since the first column will now be a fixed length everything should line
up.

Subject: Two Column Select Box?


Anyone develop a selectbox that shows two columns of data but only one
value?

Example:

<option value="1">XYZ      |   XYZ Corporation</option>
 <option value="1">ABCD   |   AB Corporation of Delaware</option>


Goal is to still have the two columns aligned as well.

TIA!
