Alfresco unordered list web script - freemarker

Question

I need to build an unordered list starting from an Alfresco Space:
I found this working template:
<#macro recurse_macro node depth>
<#if node.isContainer>
<tr>
<td align='left'>(${depth})
<#if (depth>0) >
<#list 1..depth as i>.</#list>
</#if>
<img src="/alfresco${node.icon16}"> ${node.properties.name}
</td>
</tr>
<#list node.children as child>
<#if child.isContainer && node.children?size != 0 >
<#recurse_macro node=child depth=depth+1/>
</#if>
</#list>
</#if>
</#macro>
<b>Recursive Listing of Spaces:</b>
<table border="1" celpadding="1" cellspacing="1">
<tr><th> Name Space </th></tr>
<#recurse_macro node=companyhome depth=0/>
</table>
What I need is to modify this template to render the space content as un unordered list:
<ul id="0" >
<li id="1">Content_one
<ul>
<li id="2">Content_two
<ul>
<li id="3">Content_three</li>
<li id="4">Content_four</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li id="5">Content_five</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Well, you need to add a < li> tag everywhere where you list a node, for one:
First replace the table tags with < ul id=0> and < /ul>.
Then, in the #macro - you need to list the content name but without the < td> part. so delete the < td> and < /td> tags. Also, you don't need the dots, so remove the <#if (depth>0) > block.
You need a counter. So have an <#assign counter = 0/> just before you enter the recurse macro for the first time.And increment the counter every time you enter the macro (so on line two of the macro: <#assign counter = counter+1/>
You also need < li> tags around the line where your actual document name is.
So enclose the < img /> and < a> < /a> blocks in a < li id="${counter}"> and close it with < /li>
Now, you will also need a new set of < ul> tags when you do a recurse.
To do it, you need to change the
<
#if child.isContainer && node.children?size != 0 >
<#recurse_macro node=child depth=depth+1/>
</#if>
block. Enclose the tag with your < ul> and < /ul> tags.
That should do it.
