JXTemplate - Output Fixed Number Columns

Sorry, this may be a stupid question, but I can't think up a way to do
this in a JXTemplate.

I've got an ArrayList I'm passing into a JXTemplate with
sendPageAndWait().  Let's say that it has a size of 8.  I want to
output a table with a fixed number of 3 columns.  So there would be
the first three items in the first row, 3 on the second, and the last
2 on the third.

Any pointers on how I can do this using jx:forEach or something similar?

Thanks,

- Brent

Yeah, I've got some helper classes that handle the Hibernate objects
for loading the data from the database.  The helper runs a hibernate
query pulling a list of objects and returns them as a List.  I think
I'll just do as you suggested and have it create an array of arrays
before sending it back to the JXTemplate.

Thanks,

you are better off creating a custom generator for that or you could 
just split up your data at controller level sending an array of arrays 
to jxtemplate.
