    Hello, the intros into OWS are very inspiring ;-) Thank you guys.

    I was just wondering if you would have any thoughts on how to create a multi column list, e.g. for a little product catalog:
    1. column - thumbnail, name, short description, detail link
    2. column - thumbnail, name, short description, detail link
    3. column - thumbnail, name, short description, detail link
     
    At the moment I can see this only working with a one column display of a list but this would mean a lot of scrolling....

    Many thanks in advance!
    Best Regards
    Oliver

    If I am understanding your question correctly, you want to display the records from left to right, instead of top to bottom. Yes?

    Use the {ALTERNATE} tag.

    Attached is an OWS configuration that has been converted from the Listx sample(predecessor to OWS) provided in this forum post:

    I can't take credit and I have not personally tested this, but it should get you started.
