In addition to your snippet, I had to add the following CSS attributes
to the <LI> element:
position: relative;
overflow: auto;
and slightly increased the width of the container <UL> element. It is
now showing up as expected.
Thanks for your help!

I have a list with 3 columns. This is the code. You just modify it a little bit for your page.
<li>
Name
<span class='citystateinlist'>City,State</span>
<span class='dateinlist'>Date</span>
</li>
.dateinlist{
float: right;
width: 80px;
}
.citystateinlist{
float: right;
width: 150px;
}
Ashwin wrote:Hi Yogesh, You gave me some food for thought! I added float:left; and width: 300px; attributes to all the <span> tags just to see how that turns out. When I do that, the <span> elements are outside the enclosing <li> elements, one below the other. I am no CSS expert, so I could be messing up somehow in that area. Can you send me a relevant snippet of the CSS that you employ for this effect?

In CSS, assign a width and float them left or right as per your requirement. HTH.

google.com) is because the drop choice choices appear in a tabular format with 2 columns. The left column contains the ticker symbol and the right column contains the company name. I am trying to emulate a similar effect but with 4 columns. Without thinking about customization, my first attempt involves trying to return data that looks like this from the server side<ul> <li><span style="width:50px;">1</span><span style="width: 150px;">Jane</span><span style="width:150px;">Doe</span><span style="width:250px;">Director</span></li> <li><span style="width:50px;">2</span><span style="width: 150px;">John</span><span style="width:150px;">Doe</span><span style="width:250px;">Manager</span></li> <li><span style="width:50px;">3</span><span style="width: 150px;">Peter</span><span style="width:150px;">Tr
ent</span><span style="width:250px;">Developer</span></li> </ul>In a regular HTML page, this has a tabular look to it. But when this content gets loaded in the autocompleter's DIV element, it gets treated just like HTML whitespace.Am I missing something here, or are there better ways of doing this?Thanks!Ashwin- Hide quoted text -- Show quoted text -
