is there a way to build a table holding two columns of results???
Hi Jochen, some time ago I had to look for such a thing, but with 3 columns... what I came up with is some mathematics to do a layout that will go for any number of columns. I was surprised that I did not already find something like this, as I expected this to be a common task. All html-comments can be left out, I just added them for this mail. <!-- Just an example list: --> span tal:define="global imagestring_list python:['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7']"/> <!-- Set up the variables, currently 2, can be changed --> <span tal:define="global num_cols python:2"/> <!-- WARNING: Math here. We calculate the number of rows that we will need :-) --> <span tal:define="global myrows python:range(0,(len(imagestring_list)+num_cols-1)/num_cols)"/> <!-- we calculate the number of empty cells we need to fill up --> <span tal:define="global addemptycells python:(num_cols - (len(imagestring_list)%num_cols))%num_cols"/> <table border="1"> <tr tal:repeat="reihe myrows"> <!-- we grab just those items we need for this row --> <td tal:repeat="item python:imagestring_list[reihe*num_cols : reihe*num_cols+num_cols]"> Content: <span tal:replace="item"/> <!-- we cheat in some empty cells according to our needs, only at the end of the table --> <span tal:condition="python:repeat['item'].end and repeat['reihe'].end and (addemptycells>=1)" tal:replace="structure python:'</td><td> '*addemptycells" /> </td> </tr> </table> Have fun!
