Show 20 records from table in a 4 x 5 grid not big column

Hi all,

i wuold like to set a recordset to extract 2 fields from a table and instead of showing in a table with 2 columns and 10 rows, spread this across a 4 columns by 5 rows instead.

I dont know if the table can be created dynamically in this manner or by splitting into 2 tables side by side..

Any assistance greatly appreciated

Going to take a while to merge that into where I am at the moment but makes sense.

Will let you know how I get on


Regards,
Another way to get the same thing without tables would be using div's.
<style type="text/css">
#td_container {
      width: 800px;
}
#td_container .td {
      float: left;
      width: 190px;
      margin-right: 10px;
}
</style>

<div id="td_container">
<%do until rs.eof%>
<div class="td"><%=rs.field1%></div>
<%
rs.movenext
loop
%>
</div>
Thanks guys, have to give it up for today.  Will give both a good bash tomorrow morning.  

FYI I am writing all my html in Notepad and I am a bit new at the htm coding and havent used divs before or asp yet.  I had created my code from within access previously so it was easy to get the data out.

Check back tomoorow,
