I am wanting to display a long list of categories, and would like to include them at the foot of the page, distributed in a list evenly across 4 or 5 columns. How would I go about doing something like so?

Just ask fris if you don't know what you're doing. I'm too hungover to help.

You can try this plugin : http://www.dagondesign.com/articles/...for-wordpress/

just search in plugins directory, there is lot of them that can help

Seems like something you can do manually with a table of links, instead of having to get a plugin do it. I dunno, if it's something easy enough to do on my own, I prefer that over plugins.

It's been awhile.. if I remember correctly, you allow for the width of all columns in the ul, then float the lists and set those widths smaller. Set a container height, and the list will auto wrap for you.

Here's an idea: since you ask every single day for people to help you with WP... what about paying someone that knows about it?

Fetch categories, store in array, loop through with a counter and print them.
