Use the columnFill property to fill columns. Fill it as auto to fill sequentially, or balance to equally divide content between columns.
Example
You can try to run the following code to set fill columns with JavaScript −
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <p>Click below to create 4 columns</p> <button onclick="display()">Columns</button> <div id="myID"> This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. This is demo text. </div> <script> function display() { document.getElementById("myID").style.columnCount = "4"; document.getElementById("myID").style.columnFill = "balance"; } </script> </body> </html>
