How can I present text in columns, like a newspaper?
example
This is column 1
Once again, the <TABLE> tag
comes to the rescue! If you are
using a text browser like Lynx,
This will appear at the top,
followed by the next two columns.
This is column 2
Since we have three columns, I have
set the TD WIDTH="30%". Of course you
can divvy up your columns however
you want!
This is column 3
Here we are at the last
column. This trick works
with almost every browser!
source code
<TABLE BORDER="0">
<TR>
<TD WIDTH="30%" VALIGN="TOP">
This is column 1<BR>
Once again, the <TABLE> tag
comes to the rescue! If you are
using a text browser like Lynx,
This will appear at the top,
followed by the next two columns.
</TD>
<TD WIDTH="5%"></TD>
<TD WIDTH="30%" VALIGN="TOP">
This is column 2<BR>
Since we have three columns, I have
set the TD WIDTH="30%". Of course you
can divvy up your columns however
you want!
</TD>
<TD WIDTH="5%"></TD>
<TD WIDTH="30%" VALIGN="TOP">
This is column 3<BR>
I used up the remaining 10%
by inserting empty columns
with a width of 5%. This way
the columns are not as close
together.
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
