Template:Column

From Iwe

{{#switch:column | col-2 = The Template:Col-2 sets column width for each of two columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: {{col-2 |width=40%|align=right|valign=center}}.

| col-3 = The Template:Col-3 sets column width for each of three columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: {{col-3 |width=25%|align=right|valign=center}}.

| col-4 = The Template:Col-4 sets column width for each of four columns.

| col-5 = The Template:Col-5 sets column width for each of five columns.

| col-6 = The Template:Col-6 sets column width for each of six columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: {{col-6 |width=20%|align=right|valign=center}}.

| col-start=The Template:Col-start begins a wikitable (same as {{col-begin}}).

}} The {{col-begin}}, {{col-break}} and {{col-end}} templates control columns of text on a page:

  • {{col-begin}}: starts a table (followed by {{col-break}} for 1st column)
  • {{col-break}}: triggers the start of each column
  • {{col-end}}: ends the multi-column table.

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

[edit] Usage

{{col-begin|width=70%}}: start table with width.
{{col-break|width=66%}}: start column-1 as 66% wide.
This is text in col-1.
{{col-break|width=33%}}: start column-2 as 33% wide.
Text column-2.
{{col-end}}

The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2.

A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. 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: 

{{col-begin|width=95%}}
|-
| 
Left column
|
Right column
|}
