listbox with 2 columns and a vertical bar - how to create it in HTML?

Maybe someone can show me an example of a listbox with 2 columns and a
vertical bar created by HTML (JavaScript is OK).

Thanks,

Zalek

IOW, style to use monospaced fonts and use &nbsp; to pad the first
column to the desired width.

you think the OP wants two columns with ONE scroll bar? Yes?

Don't be accommodating, be honest. I honestly don't have much more time
for anything else.

Ed Mullen wrote:Yes. The OP after all does say "a listbox", so an example showing two
listboxes is probably not what the OP wants.
Jeff showed a kludge to accomplish this. Hopefully that will satisfy the
OP.

Looks like it was a too hasty response of mine and was a failure to take
the OP literally. I simply thought he meant to have a couple of lists
and to have some scrollbars and was not making any point beyond this.

(I am not capable of great subtlety, I am sort of Australian you see...)
