You could use a table to display them in a 3x3 grid.

It does make sense I however, don't know anything about Coldfusion.For that manner, I don't have a clue in what language I should give an example :)*knows a lot, but nothing about CF*

Same boat I could give you an example in PHP, ASP, or ASP.Net, but not CF And CF is very different from the others.Skemcin would know...he is the resident CF expert.

Hi,We can set the number of columns required for the table being outputted. This can be any number of columns ranging from 1 and up.<cfset columns = 4>http://www.cfcentral.com.au/main.cfm?secti...nt&contentid=11
