Here is my DataList:
<asp:DataList id="DataList" Visible="false" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" Width="100%" HorizontalAlign="Justify" RepeatLayout="Flow" runat="server">
[Contents Removed]
</asp:DataList>
This generates markup that has each item wrapped in a span. From there, I'd like to break each of these spans out into rows of
three columns. Ideally I would like something like this:
<div>
<span>Item 1</span>
<span>Item 2</span>
<span>Item 3</span>
</div>
<div>
<span>Item 4</span>
<span>Item 5</span>
<span>Item 6</span>
</div>
[etc]
The closest I can get to this is to set RepeatColumns to "3" and then a <br> is inserted after every
three items in the DataList.
<span>Item 1</span>
<span>Item 2</span>
<span>Item 3</span>
<br>
<span>Item 4</span>
<span>Item 5</span>
<span>Item 6</span>
<br>
This gets me kind of close, but really doesn't do the trick - I still can't control the layout the way I'd like to be able to.
Can anyone suggest a way to make this better? If I could implement the above example - that would be perfect, however I'd accept a less elegant solution as well - as long as its more flexible than <br> (such as inserting a <span class="clear"></span> instead of <br>).
