I'm trying to create a 3 column checkbox list, but I want the checkboxes listed vertically, per column. When I add the gf_list_3col to a checkbox widget I get the 3 colums that I want, but the checkboxes are listed horizontally.

The CSS ready class only emulates a 3 column layout by equally floating/spacing the elements horizontally. If you want actual vertical columns, you would have to use jQuery to introduce some additional markup into the field. The easiest work around would be to re-order your items/checkboxes ( 1-4-7-2-5-8-3-6-9 ) so that they lay out/read the way you want them to.. ( see example below ) - maybe not the most elegant solution, but a solution nonetheless. Only your hairdresser will know the difference.
