New page: <includeonly><div> {| width="{{{1|100%}}}" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadd...

New page

<includeonly><div>
{| width="{{{1|100%}}}" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background-color: transparent; table-layout: fixed"
|- valign="top"
|<div style="margin-right: 20px"></includeonly><noinclude>
Use this template to start a multi-column section of a page. For example:

<pre>
{{MultiCol}}
This text appears in the first column.
{{ColBreak}}
This text appears in the second column.
{{ColBreak}}
This text appears in the third column.
{{EndMultiCol}}
</pre>

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. See [[User:Franl|franl]]'s user page for examples of how this template can be used.
This template has one optional parameter: the overall width of the set of columns. This can be an absolute value (e.g., <tt>12cm</tt>) or a percentage of the available page width (e.g., <tt>50%</tt>). This parameter defaults to <tt>100%</tt>. For example, to create a multi-column section of a page that is only 50% the width of the page, do this:

<pre>
{{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}}
</pre>

The multi-column region is always positioned on the left side of the containing block. To change this, place the above Wikitext in a <tt>[[DIV (HTML tag)|DIV]]</tt> block that has the [[Cascading Style Sheet|CSS]] attribute <tt>text-align</tt> set to either <tt>center</tt> or <tt>right</tt>, like this:

<pre>
<div style="text-align: center">
{{MultiCol|50%}}
...
{{EndMultiCol}}
</div>
</pre>

==Related Templates==

The templates {{tl|Col-begin}} and friends do something similar to this template and its friends, but this template may be easier to use. Each of the following examples produce the same result (a 3-column table in which all columns have equal width):

<center>
{{MultiCol|50%}}
<pre>
{{MultiCol}}
Column 1
{{ColBreak}}
Column 2
{{ColBreak}}
Column 3
{{EndMultiCol}}
</pre>
{{ColBreak}}
<pre>
{{Col-begin}}
{{Col-3}}
Column 1
{{Col-3}}
Column 2
{{Col-3}}
Column 3
{{Col-end}}
</pre>
{{EndMultiCol}}
</center>

It's simpler to add more columns to the {{tl|MultiCol}} example than to the {{tl|Col-begin}} example, because in the latter case, all occurrences of {{tl|Col-3}} would have to be changed to {{tl|Col-4}}.

{{Template:Col-begin/doc}}
