You see, this is either really easy or very hard depending on
quite what you want and quite how many downsides you are prepared
to buy. If you want very clever and are prepared to go to a lot
of trouble (unless you are already skilful in server side
programming?), study what Adrienne has said about server side.
You still will have to sort out a lot of requirements. If your
lists are in a sort of order, and are of different lengths this
adds to the complexity.
Consider again the advice I gave you before which does not mean
you should no have columns but rather that you should use the
columns for other purposes than to distribute the lists, you
could include a navigation list in another column. You can give
other information in yet another. I would bet quids on this being
the least trouble for both you and your page customers. There is
nothing they could not understand this way.
I feel I am nagging you now. Good luck anyway.
