Template:Columns

Divides list or text into columns automatically. No need to count and divide into table cells and then re-count and re-divide if new info is added to the list.

Usage

{{Columns|# of columns| list or text}}

For example, if you need to break the list bellow into 2 columns:

• 1
• 2
• 3
• 4
• 5
• 6

Simply type:

{{Columns|2|
* 1
* 2 
* 3 
* 4 
* 5 
* 6
}}

Result:

• 1
• 2
• 3
• 4
• 5
• 6

Additional options

For flexibility - e.g. a list that is 5 columns on a wide screen desktop browser, but an unspecified number of 150px columns on a narrower mobile screen - use these parameters:

{{Columns|count=# of columns|colwidth= width in px or em|style= css color/width/fonts/size etc.|data= list or text}}

Example:

{{Columns|count=5|colwidth=150px|style=background-color:#FFCCCC; border:1px solid black;|data=
[list of fruits]
}}
