The CellIndex tag is used to print records in separate cells controlled by a LoopSet. In the example below 3 cells will be printed on each row and each cell will contain the data from a single record. The cells will repeat in groups of 3 until all the records are printed.

  
<table cellspacing="2" cellpadding="4" bgcolor="#CCCCFF">
   <dxp:LoopSet recordset="dbSet" cells="3">
      <tr>
         <td width="80">
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="0" index="0"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="0" index="1"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="0" index="2"/>
         </td>
         <td width="80">
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="1" index="0"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="1" index="1"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="1" index="2"/>
         </td>
         <td width="80">
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="2" index="0"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="2" index="1"/><br />
            <dxp:CellIndex cell="2" index="2"/>
         </td>
      </tr>
   </dxp:LoopSet>
</table>

The LoopSet hands a row number to each CellIndex tag that corresponds to the beginning row for the current list of cells. The cell number is added as an offset to the starting row number. This picks out the correct record for the cell. Because the cell index is 0 based the maximum cell number should be 1 less than the total number of cells specified in the LoopSet tag. In this example the total number of cells is 3 and the cell indexes run from 0..2.
