Template:Div columns/doc
Description
This template will generate up to five side-by-side columns for text, lists, or other content. The number of columns is automatically determined based on whether a column's contents are defined.
This template will respect the widths of adjacent infoboxes, image thumbnails, and other content.
Dependencies
Syntax
Type {{div columns|<line=>|<col1=CONTENT>|<col2=CONTENT>|<col3=CONTENT>|<col4=CONTENT>|<col5=CONTENT>}} somewhere.
- The number of columns created is determined by whether or not you define col5, col4, col3, or col2.
- Minimum is 2 columns; maximum is 5 columns.
- You can insert a vertical line separator between the columns.
- If line= is set to any of the following, then the default vertical line separator will appear between the columns: true, default, normal, yes, y
- If line= is set to a CSS-compliant border value, then that's how the line will appear.
- If line= is not listed, or if it is left empty, or if it is set to "none" or any non-CSS compliant value, then no line will appear.
- If a column begins with a heading (such as === Heading ===) or a list item (such as * bullet item), then you must type <nowiki /> followed by a new line before typing the wikimarkup.
- Depending on how or where this template is used in an article, it may be sensible to precede or follow it with {{clr}} in order to prevent other content from limiting the column widths.
