Template documentation

Purpose

With the {{multicol}} / {{multicol-break}} / {{multicol-end}} templates you can format text into multiple columns by starting a new column within the text section. The multi-column text is started with the {{multicol}} template. A new column is started with {{multicol-break}}. The last column is closed with the {{multicol-end}} template.

Usage

{{multicol}}
This text appears in the first column.
{{multicol-break}}
This text appears in the second column.
{{multicol-break}}
This text appears in the third column.
{{multicol-end}}

displays as:

This text appears in the first column.

This text appears in the second column.

This text appears in the third column.

Parameters

{{multicol}} has two optional parameters:

• the overall width of the set of columns (default: 1=100%)
• the width of the "gutter", the space between the columns (default: 2=20px)

{{multicol-break}} has one optional parameter:

• the width of the "gutter" (default: 1=20px)

For example, to create a multi-column section that is only 50% the width of the page, using a 40px column space:

{{multicol|50%|40px}}
This text appears in the first column.
{{multicol-break|40px}}
This text appears in the second column.
{{multicol-break|40px}}
This text appears in the third column.
{{multicol-end}}

displays as:

This text appears in the first column.

This text appears in the second column.

This text appears in the third column.
