Database images side by side

Hi,

i have a database with images and these are being displayed with no problems on my .aspx pages, albeit one on top of the other. while this is ok i want to be able to have images displayed side by side in a 4 columned table and when the fifth image is being pulled through it will go to the next line and so on. Can anyone help me with this\? Even point me in the direction of an extension which could help.

These images will be thumbnails which i will then click on to have the larger image displayed in a new window.

Thanks in advance

This can be done in Dreameweaver using standard DW tools and no extension. I
did an article on it here:

Basically, you use a DataList, choose to use table, then table columns of 4
and choose how many records you want to show total.

OK,

so went through the tutorial and everything worked ok but how would i accomplish getting an image from the database to be output on the screen. at the minute it just prints the name/path of the image file on the page.

Put your looper around the <td> not around the <tr>. Have nested loopers
where the inner one counts to 4....
