copied!<p>First of all, this is stupid... but it does work... however, it only works in certain cases and involves a ton of <em>silly</em> numbers. Definitely not modular. <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/sheriffderek/WCup6/" rel="nofollow">FIDDLE</a> (do I need to mention you'll need to resize your browser?)</p> <p>HTML</p> <pre><code><ul> <li>01</li> <li>02</li> <li>03</li> <li>04</li> <li>05</li> <li>06</li> </ul> </code></pre> <p>CSS</p> <pre><code>/* apply a natural box layout model to all elements */ * { -moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0; margin: 0; } ul { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; width: 4em; border: 1px solid orange; overflow: hidden; /* in place of clearing float */ } ul li { position: relative; /* for the negative top distance to work */ display: inline-block; border: 1px solid red; width: 2em; height: 2em; float: left; clear: left; } ul li:nth-of-type(n+4) { float: right; clear: none; top: -6em; } @media (min-width: 30em) { ul { width: auto; float: left; } ul li { float: left; clear: none; border: 1px solid green; } ul li:nth-of-type(n+4) { float: left; top: 0; } } /* =========== end === */ </code></pre> <p>I'm betting there is a nice jQuery something for this... If your table isn't being dynamically populated with different amounts of information - you could do something like this cosmetically or use some absolute positioning - columns is probably the way to go though. Good luck... </p>

Querying!
