How to use cfloop and a table together

Question

let us say that I had a query that would return the first
name of an ever changing number of people. I would then like to
display each name in its own <td> at five <td> per row,
then start the next row. keeping in mind that sometimes I might
have less than 5 names and most of the time more than 5 with no
maximum. Can you give me some ideas on how to handle my cfloop
creating the needed <td>#name#</td>.

Answer 1

This finishes Ian's code
<tr>
<cfloop query="nameQry">
<td>#firstName#</td>
<cfif currentrow is recordcount>
</tr>
<cfesleif nameQry.currentRow MOD 5 EQ 0>
</tr><tr>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</tr>
I believe all that will do is add an extra </tr> tag to
the last row.
The last closing </tr> is handled with the one that
comes after the loop
block.
The issue I was pointing out was that, if you have 12
records, my code
will create three rows but the last row will only have two
cells in it.
Not five like the others. This may not generate a desirable
display.
If one wanted 5 cells in the list row, three of them empty,
further
logic will be required.
