Thank you both for helping me come to this solution:
qListView web part
Display tab
Viewed Lists field:
<Lists>
<List SiteUrl=”.” ListName=”theList” />
</Lists>
Sort Fields field:
Title
Custom Display tab
Results Header field:
<table><th><td><b>Appraiser List</b></td></th>
<script type=’text/javascript’>var index = 0; var rowmax = 8;</script>
Results Body field:
<script type=’text/javascript’>
if (index == 0) {
index++;
document.write(“<tr>”);
} else if (index <= rowmax) {
document.write(“<td>”);
document.write(“<a href=/sites/Site_Collection/Site/Lists/theList/dispform.aspx?&ID=<%ID%>>”);
document.write(“<%Title%></a>”);
document.write(“</td>”);
index++;
} else {
index = 0;
document.write(“</tr>”);
}
</script>
Results Footer field:
</table>
Adjust the ‘rowmax’ value in the Results Header to match the number of desired columns. The column width auto-adjusts and wraps the Titles within each cell if they end up too long.
Additionally, the documentation you mentioned can be found at: http://documents.quest.com/QB18575 (for the version I am using, at least).
There may still be a better, more dynamic way to do this, but I doubt it will end up this simple.
