The Template:Tl, Template:Tl and Template:Tl 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.
Contents |
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
