I've got a bunch of checkboxes I would like to layout in a two or three column form. I am trying a:

<{foreach item=element from=$layerform.elements}>

"><{$element.body}>


<{/foreach}>

type of affair, but would like to layout in more than a single column. How is this done??? How can I do something like:

<{foreach item=element from=$layerform.elements}>

"><{$element.body}>
<{next}>
"><{$element.body}>

<{/foreach}>

So I can get "every other" element to layout in a second or third column? (I know there is no "next" )

Thanks

<{counter assign=elementno start=print=false}>
<{foreach 
item=element from=$layerform.elements}>
<{
counter}>
<
tr>
<{if 
$elementno is div by 3}>
     td><td>
<{/if}>
<
td class="<{cycle values="even,odd"}>"><{$element.body}>td>
tr>

Try that out

Thanks for the tip! I have a rudimentary understanding of Smarty and templates but I need more experience...

That actually doesn't work. It puts the gadgets like this:


gadget1
-------gadget2
gadget3
-------gadget4
gadget5
-------gadget6

I'm fooling around with it to see if I can work it out...

Thanks

<tr>
<{
counter assign=elementno start=print=false}>
<{foreach 
item=element from=$layerform.elements}>
<{
counter}>
<{if 
$elementno is div by 3}>
     tr><tr>
<{/if}>
<
td class="<{cycle values="even,odd"}>"><{$element.body}>td>
<{/foreach}>
tr>


Try this instead.

Works Perfectly! And it was much simpler than the tutorial. Thank you very much!
