This works ok for that scenario, but what about if you need each item out of the list? eg, to iterate through a list of names:
<logic:iterate name="names" id="name"> <tr><td><bean:write name="name"/></td></tr> </logic:iterate> Gives one column.... <tr><td>name1</td></tr> <tr><td>name2</td></tr> <tr><td>name3</td></tr> <tr><td>name4</td></tr> Is there an easy way to get: This would seem a fairly common scenario to me! <tr><td>name1</td><td>name2</td></tr> <tr><td>name3</td><td>name4</td></tr> Daniel. -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of bOOyah Sent: 06 April 2004 20:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: How can I display a table in two columns?

That would probably work fine. My list is always a fixed size, but with variable content. > By the way, what is the submitted value of the cb? Is it the index or > some other kind of id? The multibox values are actually IDs; database primary keys as it happens.
