Dub posted a snippet to split a node display over two equal columns. Sorry I don't have a link....Look in the php snippets or theme snippets.

It shouldn't be too difficult to add another column to the
center.  However, getting text to flow from one
column to the next seems hard.

You'd have to split the HTML by rendered height
if you want two balanced columns; otherwise,
you'll need to split after one column has
been filled and spill the remaining text into
the next column.   This is awkward since
if you do it on the server you won't know about
things like actual column width, height, and
font size, whereas if you do it on the browser
you'll have to deal with Javascript :)

Greetings and salutations to all,

I've been looking around to see if anyone had attempted a four column theme
before I spend countless hours attempting it.  I searched the list archives
but didn't find anything. What I'm wanting is the left and right side bars
and then for the articles to wrap into columns similar to that of a
newspaper. Possible? Feasible?
