Here, width specifies the width of the columns, and determines dynamically the number of columns based on screen width; more columns will be shown on wider displays. If |colwidth= is not specified, the default width of 30em will be used. This template uses CSS3 multiple-column layout, which is not supported by all web browsers.
However, for decades, HTML has had only limited options for easy alignment (one: <center>, which is now deprecated). A method for undenting the first word of a paragraph is to put the paragraph into a text-table, where the first word (or syllable) is (alone) in column 1, while the other text is in column 2.

As noted above, in a numbered list in a large font, some browsers do not show more than two digits of indentation width, unless extra indentation is applied (if there are multiple columns; then indentation for each column). While this should be fixed in the wikicode, user stylesheet CSS can work around the problem for as long as it is present ...
For example: |flex1=3 |flex2=2 will result in the first column taking up to 60% (3/5) of the available width, and the second column taking up at least 40% (2/5) of the width. Note that the actual column balance will vary depending on screen size, since the minimum width of each column is set at 360px.
The template {} (for "list item dot") simulates, as closely as possible within the bounds of differences between browsers, the appearance of the bullet used by Wikipedia in unordered lists. Its variants {{ lidot2 }} and {{ lidot3 }} do the same, with minor enhancements for more consistent list appearance in certain cases, as documented below.
To create columns in an article one may use {} and {}. Note that this is not supported by Internet Explorer version 9 and below or Opera version 11 and below — see {{ Div col }} for details. To illustrate the use of these templates, this example uses the {{ lorem }} template to generate Lorem ipsum placeholder text.
