This template is used to split content on pages up into columns, such as in a Table of Contents page.

Usage

{{col
|Number of columns - 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6
|begin or end (optional)
|Number of columns to span (optional)
}}

begin and end are only used at the beginning or ending of the set of columns. To have content span across multiple columns, use another field with the number of columns. This number must obviously be no greater than the total number of columns, and should go after begin if being used on the first column. Multiple {{col}} templates can also be nested inside of each other to split individual columns into more than one column.

Examples

Two columns
{{col|2|begin}}
column 1 text
{{col|2}}
column 2 text
{{col|2|end}}
Three columns. The middle one has two smaller ones.
{{col|3|begin}}
column 1 text
{{col|3}}
  {{col|2|begin}}
  column 3,1 text
  {{col|2}}
  column 3,2 text
  {{col|2|end}}
{{col|3}}
column 3 text
{{col|3|end}}
Four columns. The second one spans columns two and three.
{{col|4|begin}}
column 1 text
{{col|4|2}}
columns 2-3 text
{{col|4}}
column 4 text
{{col|4|end}}
Five columns. The first one spans columns one through three.
{{col|5|begin|3}}
column 1-3 text
{{col|5}}
column 4 text
{{col|5}}
column 5 text
{{col|5|end}}
Six columns
{{col|6|begin}}
column 1 text
{{col|6}}
column 2 text
{{col|6}}
column 3 text
{{col|6}}
column 4 text
{{col|6}}
column 5 text
