HTML formatting for alphabetized list of words

[mudogg80]

I have database table that I can access a long list of keywords, thats no problem...what i want to do with that list is separate by A, B, C..etc. into 4 columns across.
For example:

A  
able 
acre 
anchor 
animal 
b  
bay 
bear 
boy 
brave 

Any ideas on the best way to format?

Thanks in advance

You may get better response to this question if you post it in either the PHP [webmasterworld.com] forum or Database [webmasterworld.com] forum.

Hi mudogg80,

There's no way of doing this with HTML alone. The best would be to get your backend to send them through to the browser with the correct sorting.

There are some JavaScript solutions for doing this also.
