Since I don't know how many rows are returning, I can't really hard code it like the above example.
I'm new to lisp, so I may just be thinking about this in the wrong way. In Java, opening a tag like this and >closing it is a very common pattern. Maybe I'm just thinking too much in Java... --James A Barrows
Here's one way:
(let ((records '((1 2 3) (4 5 6) (7 8 9)))) (with-html-output (*standard-output* nil :indent 0) (dolist (rec records) (htm (:div :class "row" (dolist (col rec) (htm (:div :class "span-one-third" (str col)))))))))
