You can have any number of columns. Each column will be the same width, equally dividing the available horizontal space. Each column has a small (20 pixel) right margin, which prevents text in one column from touching text in the column to its right. This template has one optional parameter: the overall width of the set of columns. This can be an absolute value (e.g., 12cm) or a percentage of the available page width (e.g., 50%). This parameter defaults to 100%. For example, to create a multi-column section of a page that is only 50% the width of the page, do this: {{MultiCol|50%}}
This text appears in the first column.
{{ColBreak}}
This text appears in the second column.
{{ColBreak}}
This text appears in the third column.
{{EndMultiCol}}
The multi-column region is always positioned on the left of the page. To change this, place the above Wikitext in a DIV block that has the CSS attribute text-align set to either center or right. |
