Hi
I'm trying to conditionally place items of a collection of attributes on
a page, using stringtemplate expression syntax. I need to iterate
through (for example) a list of 7 attributes, and place 4 on one line,
then place a line break and place three on the next line. Is there a
way I can do this using expression syntax, or some other method? I see
there is are ways to differentiate between first and last items in a
list, but how can I tell if it's the third or fourth item, and insert a
line-break conditional on being the 4th item?
I don't want to have to create two attribute lists and output them
individually with a line break in between, which would be a way to do
it, but appears to break the strict model-view separation; the attribute
lists are generated in the model, and the arrangement on the page
defined by the view.
many thanks
Mike
