"Horizontal Looper"

Hi all,

I would like to display all results from a MySQL query both horizontally and vertically, i.e. display in rows of say 4 across each.
When I was using Macromedia Ultradev, there was a neat extension (HLooper2) that would do this. But now that I am handcoding, the code of that extension doesn't work anymore. I have tried to "translate" it, but still no luck (the problem being the "move_next()" function).
This extension works with the RecordSet code that UltraDev creates. But I find that code way too bulky (why use 3 lines plus 2 include files when you can do the same thing in just one line??).
So... how do I go about this?
If you need the code that gets inserted when using HLoopper2 I can post that for you here.
Thanks,

Toine
