Template:Column templates

__NOWYSIWYG__

Description
The, , and templates control columns of text on a page:
 * — starts a table (followed by for 1st column)
 * — triggers the start of each column
 * — ends the multi-column table.

The widths of columns can be specified by using various additional codes. See below for examples.

Usage
The table will have 2 columns, with column 1 twice (2x) the width of column 2.
 * — start table with width.
 * — start column-1 as 66% wide.
 * This is text in col-1.
 * — start column-2 as 33% wide.
 * Text column-2.

A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5% width. Therefore, with a 2px border — for example, as in Wikipedia:Tutorial (Wrap-up and more info) — the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within the screen. Since it’s possible that some tables might not have a border, correction on the individual page could be made after substitution. Another way to create a two-column table is like this:


 * }


 * produces …

Left column Right column
 * }
