Spacing of different height element within grid layout( Masonry )

Hey all,

So I've been searching alot and cannot seem to find what im looking for.

Is it possible to achieve this effect without .js, horizontally sorted? http://isotope.metafizzy.co/layout-modes/masonry.html

The only .js free options are vertically sorted, like this: http://andyknapp.com/demo/learning-flexbox/

I really didn't want to have to use a .js lib just for a simple effect, btw dont need that many columns, maybe 2 or 3 are enough.

Thanks!

Hmm ok that's what i though, thanks Nick anyway!

I don't think this would be possible without JS unfortunately. But I also don't think it's a bad thing to use a javascript library. Pretty much every website uses jQuery. If you're worried about it being too slow, try Zepto.js
