Using CSS, create 2 columns in the left and right sections of your page (also known as left and right 'sidebars'). Put your links in those sidebars.

Hope that helps.

My approach would be as gdebojyoti.mail96 says, but I would put them in a "wrapper":

CSS:

#wrapper {width: 100%; margin: auto;}
#left { width: 50%; float: left;}
#right { width: 50%; float: right}

HTML:

<div id="wrapper">
<div id="left">
left links go here
</div>
<div id="right">
right links go here>
</div>
</div>

Obviously you can add formatting with other CSS tags etc

Hope that helps.

Run a web search for "three column layout". The article "In Search of the Holy Grail" on A List Apart has one implementation.

Hi.

I usually create a table with three columns in one row :
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="20%">Left Side</td>
<td>Middle</td>
<td width="20%">Right Side</td>
</tr>
</table>

This code don't need css or php, just html.

I hope this could help you.

Bye.

Greg.

1999 called, it wants... you know the rest. Don't use tables for layout.

Please use [php], [html] or [code] tags (as appropriate) to separate and format code.

You can also echo html in PHP, or add PHP to HTML.

to echo html just add

echo '<p>HTML within PHP</p>

or to add php within html add:

<p><?php echo 'php within html';?></p>

Just make sure that any page that contains html is saved as a .php file.
