CSS3 Multi-Column Layout: Working Draft
2007-06-06: The CSS Working Group released an updated Working Draft of Multi-Column Layout, a module of Cascading Style Sheets Level 3 (CSS3). Style sheet authors can allow content to flow from one column to another, specify column width, and allow the number of columns to vary, all depending on available space. More flexible than table markup, columns styled in CSS can more easily be presented on a variety of output devices including speech synthesizers and small mobile devices. Visit the CSS home page.
