I’ve been trying out site design recently and decided that i wanted to have a multicolumned list but wasn’t able to attain my desired effect using css, so i wrote this little javascript that can incorporate css. it’s very simple to use. here is the html document: ```auto Multi-Columned List by Paul Scott (paul.scotto@gmail.com) ``` `items` is an array containing the information you want in the list. each item is an array with two items inside it. item\*[0] is the displayed text and item\*[1] is the link. `columns` is the number of columns to display in the text `fillStyle` is how the list is display, for example you may want your list to look something like this: ```auto (fillStyle = 1): a d g b e h c f ``` of ```auto (fillStyle = 2): a b c d e f g h ``` this is a very flexibile script so i kept it pretty simple for your customisation benefits. enjoy :thumb:
