WordPress Splitting paragraph into two even columns?

WordPress gurus, I need your help!:

Splitting a single "paragraph" into two naturally even columns in PHP is relatively easy, but I need to figure out how to split WordPress specific content into two naturally even columns with an image on top like in the image below...

Here's the issue: The text seen in the screenshot above is one parag开发者_如何学Pythonraph with a single image spanning the entire two column width. Also, the single paragraph needs to be split in the middle by word (not character) and allow for even height between the two columns. I have not yet found any examples of how to do this with WordPress syntax.

As per my understanding, you are expecting to split <p> tag of html as shown in fig. above.

Which is quite impossible !

The reason is, <p> tag is block element, by default. And to render layout as shown in above fig., you have to write HTML markup with CSS as below :

<div>
 <img src="ur-img.jpg" />

 <div class="col-2">
  <p class="alignleft"> Text for first column </p>
  <p class="alignright"> Text for second column </p>
  <p class="clear"></p>
 <div>

<div>

And CSS could be like:

.col-2 p {
    width: 45%
}

.alignright {
    float:right;
}

.alignleft {
    float:left;
}
.clear{
   clear:both;

}

Wordpress default theme come up with few css classes - chk http://codex.wordpress.org/CSS

For automatic columns, use jQuery, i.e. this plugin http://plugins.jquery.com/plugin-tags/auto-column or others.

There's no built-in functionality in WP for this, and it needs to be done at the DOM level, not the page template or PHP level.

Use CSS

Have a go at the css column property:

.two-column {
  -moz-column-count: 2;
  -moz-column-gap: 1.5em;
  -moz-column-rule: none;
  -webkit-column-count: 2;
  -webkit-column-gap: 1.5em;
  -webkit-column-rule: none;
  column-count: 2;
  column-gap: 1.5em;
  column-rule: none;
}

Here is a Demo of the above.
