Hi all,

We are currently working on a project for a client where he wants to keep a running result of football betting results which we want to be able to output in the format below, the table requires 6 columns but due to my limited css knowledge and cmsb I am unsure how we should go about it although I am pretty sure it is likely to be fairly straightforward once we have a handle on the basics. Each row is a complete record consisting of 6 elements. I am assuming that we can do the sort on a record number to keep everything in order without actually displaying the record number in the table, we simply need for the css to create the table of 6 columns generating a new row on every 7th item (I assume!!)

Any help or advice would be appreciated.



Thanks in advance

I forgot to mention ... If you are new to CMSB, you may want to subscribe to Jerry Kornbluth's CMS Cookbook. Jerry has done an excellent job of accumulating a publication of tips, tricks, and examples of the most frequently encountered problems. I find it very useful and would recommend it to anyone new to CMSB.

Hi willydoit,

Ron's example seems to be exactly what you're looking for. Did you get everything sorted out?
All the best,
