When using -webkit-column-count: 2 with an unordered list, if you set an height property on your list item, it will not be respected for lists with only 1 item; but it will work for lists with more than 1 item. See JSFiddle for demo. - http://jsfiddle.net/andismith/dNSK9/ Steps to reproduce: - Create an unordered list with 2 items - Add -webkit-column-count: 2 to the UL - Add a height to the LI (large heights work better for debugging) - Load and observe the height is as specified. - Remove one of the LI items - Reload and observe the height is no longer correct. Expected Behaviour: - Single list item maintains correct height. Actual Behaviour - Single list item ignores height.

Safari and Chrome handle this the same way. Gecko doesn't seem to support the column feature. I don't believe any issue remains.
