Thanks for your help.

In looking at this, the way my columns are created dynamically so now
I'm not sure I can use a CSS div 3 column layout approach since each
list item is being created dynamically.

Here's my code:

<table width="350">
        <ul id='pending_todo_list'>
          <tr>
                  <% @pending_todos.each_with_index do |item, i| -%>
                    <% domid = "todo_#{item.id}" %>
                    <td width="33%"><li class="pending_todo" id='<%= domid 
%>'><%=
item.name %></li></td>
                    <%= draggable_element(domid, :ghosting=>true, 
:revert=>true) %>
                    <%= "</tr><tr>" if 2 == i.modulo(3) -%>
                  <% end %>
          </tr>
        </ul>
</table>

Before I start down that path and get to a dead end, any thoughts?
