Stefan,
I haven't run the following code, so apologies in advance for any syntax
errors, but it shows the principle of what I do. Someone else might be
able to come up with something shorter and more efficient, but this
example explains what is going on.
<!--- Build the table --->
<table border="0">
<cfoutput query="myQuery">
<~--- if it's not the last record --->
<cfif myQuery.currentRow NEQ myQuery.RecordCount>
<!--- check if it's odd or even --->
<cfif myQuery.currentRow mod 2 NEQ 0>
<!--- it's odd, display a new row --->
<tr><td>#myQuery.value#</td>
<cfelse>
<!--- it's even, end the row --->
<td>#myQuery.value#</td></tr>
</cfif>
<!--- if it is the last record --->
<cfelse>
<!--- check if it's odd or even --->
<cfif myQuery.currentRow mod 2 NEQ 0>
<!--- it's odd, span the whole row --->
<tr><td>#myQuery.value#</td><td> </td></tr>
<cfelse>
<!--- it's even, just finish the row as normal
--->
<td>#myQuery.value#</td></tr>
</cfif>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</table>
HTH,
Kay.
