    Use node.ChildrenAsTable() instead of node.Children. Column names of the datatable will hold the names of the documentproperties instead of the alias. Also multiple doctypes are not allowed. The first documenttype in the node will be used to fill the datatable. So if you have an FAQ type and a News type and FAQ is the first doctype in the node. Only Faq items will appear in the datatable. You can apply a filter by using the Overloaded method

    For more info on the nodeFactory check http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/api-cheatsheet/working-with-the-nodefactory

    Hope it helps you,

    Richard
