Fields

Name	Value	Description
Table	0	Items are displayed in a table. This option causes the control to render HTML that might not conform to accessibility standards. For more information, see Accessibility in Visual Studio and ASP.NET.
Flow	1	Items are displayed without a table structure. Rendered markup consists of a `span` element and items are separated by `br` elements.
UnorderedList	2	Items are displayed without a table structure. Rendered markup consists of a `ul` element that contains `li` elements. This field is new as of ASP.NET 4 and is a valid option only for the CheckBoxList and RadioButtonList controls.
OrderedList	3	Items are displayed without a table structure. Rendered markup consists of an `ol` element that contains `li` elements. This value is new as of ASP.NET 4 and is a valid option only for the CheckBoxList and RadioButtonList controls.
