What about an ASP.NET repeater?

PD: Check the sample in this MSDN article and you'll get instructed in how to use it.

First drop an asp label in the place where you want your list to appear. This is assuming that you're looping through a datatable:

YourLabel.Text = "<ul>";
foreach (DataRow row in table.Rows) {
    YourLabel.Text += "<li>" + row["firstname"] + "</li>";
    YourLabel.Text += "<li>" + row["lastname"] + "</li>";
}
YourLabel.Text += "</ul>";
