Template:Col-begin

The col-begin, col-break and col-end 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

 * : 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.

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 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:
