Render Content Query Web Part output as UL and OL lists rather than tables
Mar 16th
The Content Query Web Part (CQWP) is an extremely powerful web part used for displaying content that can be pulled from multiple sites. However the default HTML rendered by the CQWP is full of nasty tables. A requirement was to use the cross site querying benefits of the CQWP but to be able to render the output from it as unordered (UL) lists. Lists have a number of benefits including accessibility, semantic correctness and the ability to more easily target with CSS / javascript.
Sharepoint uses XSL style sheets to sculpt the HTML that is rendered by the Content Query Web Part (CQWP). We therefore need the web part instance to use modified XSL style sheets.
