Use a table.

If the relationship between them is such that they must be side by

Two columns must be side-by-side, Chris, yet the received
wisdom is that a table is an inappropriate way of presenting
such material, both because it compromises accessibility
and because the semantics of <table> are inappropriate to
something that is not fundamentally tabular in nature.

   If they *must* be side by side, then the relationship *is* tabular
   in nature.
