Trying to create a list that forms columns automatically

[sodani]

I want to do something like,
<ul>
<li>xyz</li>
<li>abc</li>
...
</ul>

or

<div>
<p>xyz</p>
<p>abc</p>
...
</div>

and have that appear in columns - preferably filling a certain height requirement before starting a new column. Any ideas?

it's not fully possible yet..
but there is the "multi column layout" module which has support in some browsers.. so if it's mission critical it's still a manual split

else, if it's just a nicety - search for CSS multi columns, IIRC there is a javascript the can make it work x-browser. If I find the link I'll post it for you, that is if you would still like it

Thanks. I couldn't seem to find any way to do it, so I just decided to make the list run horizontally.
