{{Div col}} formats a list into columns that wrap properly and compatibly with portable computer devices, especially PAD operating systems and small screens. It is not supported by Internet Explorer 9.

Purpose

It automatically breaks the available screen space into equal parts, meaning, for instance, that it is not necessary to guess how many columns to use and then figure out the dividing point(s), e.g., the halfway point to divide the list into two columns, or the one-third and two-thirds points to divide the list into three columns.

• The list content is either provided by the {{safesubst:#if:|}}{{safesubst:#if:{{safesubst:#switch: 1

The {{columns-list}} wrapper uses the parameter method for providing content (including its limitations).

• The template system (family) also offers parameter options to place vertical lines parameter ("rules") between the columns ({{safesubst:#if:|}}{{safesubst:#if:{{safesubst:#switch: 1
