Hi,
My HTML knowledge isn't all that so here's a question:
How do I specify in wich direction a row should go when data is put in to
it. Currently I only get top down(vertical) I want Left-> Right
(horizontal). So each new piece of data moves to the right instead of down.
Tips would be very welcome.

Here's a great site to learn with many html tutorials including tables and
html.
http://www.htmlgoodies.com/tutors/tbl.html
There is one article for CC not CCS at gotocode.com, but it might help.

Ron,
I tried taking out the table's <tr> and </tr> tags (from the HTML, expecting
a real mess to be displayed, but it gave me a single row, with the "heading"
as the leftmost cell, followed by one cell for each value in my table (I
SELECTed a single column from a single table in my database). I did not
include the sorter or page navigation, which I figure WOULD screw up the
output.
This produced a single row of output. Is that what you are talking about?

Hi Don,
I'm not sure:
Row look like this in CCS(let's say it contains a label that rfers to names:
John
Peter
Marty
Lisa
What I want is:
John Peter Marty Lisa
Make any sense?

Yup, know just what you mean. I had to look this one up myself. The html
syntax is tabindex=xxx where xxx is the order in which a tab works. Look it
up on one of the html sites for exact syntax coding.

Sorry but you got me wrong,
Tabindex just specifies what happens if you push tab on your keyboard. I
want fields to flow from left to right instead of from top down.

from what i can tell you need to understand a little about how html actually
works
from your example
john
peter
marty
lisa
to do this in a table you could use a table with no <tr> tags, think of <tr>
as equal to <To the Right>
the <tr> tage makes all proceding <td> sections keep going To the Right,
untill you end the tag with </tr>
this then is lke a new line on a typed page, you start again from the left
side of that page with a new
<tr> and all following tables/boxes etc will keep going to the right
untill you end it with a </tr>
so with no <tr> tags the next box is 'under' the previous
so to make your example as above with names vertically you can do that two
ways
1/
<table>
<td> john </td>
<td> peter </td>
<td> marty </td>
<td> lisa </td>
</td>
or you can do it by actually using the <tr> and ending the </tr> to start a
new line for the next person
so you can have a vertical column from this code.
2/
<table>
<tr>
<td> john </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> peter </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> marty </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> lisa </td>
</td>
</table>
ok, so hopefully you now should understand that these make the text/data go
'Down' the page
to make ethe data go across the page you leave out all the end </tr> tags
except the last one
so to make you list of names show as:
John Peter Marty Lisa
you would use:-
<table>
<tr>
<td> john </td>
<td> peter </td>
<td> marty </td>
<td> lisa </td>
</td>
</table>
This html, starts the <table> tells the browser that its going to start
showing tables/boxes/content
across the page <To the Right> with the <tr> tag, and then 'ALL' the
following <td>xxxx</td> tags
will show news data across the page, untill the </tr> which ends the <To the
Right> code and then the
table ends with the </table>
Hope This is what you wanted to understand, and I didnt send 5 mins typing
for nothing :)

The tags main are:
<table> creates the table
<th> creates a header row - you can usually use a TR tag here if yo
wish.
<td>Header Column 1</td><td>Header Column 2</td>
</th>
<tr>creates a row
<td>Column 1 Row 1</td><td>Column 2 Row 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>Row 2
<td>Column 1 Row 2</td><td>Column 2 Row 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
The above would create a table with 2 columns, one header row and two
regular rows. Most of today's HTML editors let you create the table
graphically or via a wizard.
Of course each has attributes like align, width, valign, colspan, rowspan,
etc.

Hi Rob...
In your grid's template, locate
<!-- BEGIN Row -->
<tr>
<td >{whateverField} </td>
</tr>
<!-- END Row -->
Change it to,
<tr>
<!-- BEGIN Row -->
<td >{whateverField} </td>
<!-- END Row -->
</tr>
And make sure you delete your table's header or you'll end up with a mess.
Or, you can forget about the table completely and just...
<!-- BEGIN Row -->
{whateverField}
<!-- END Row -->
