text into two columns

liunx

Guest
I have two columns of a table. Now I would like to add a long text. I would like to make then that the text "flows" into the second clumn.<br />
So how can I connect one column to another one, or one table connecto to another one?<br />
thanks.<!--content-->http://www.forerunners.org/WebLibrary/html/ch06_02.htm describes how to use the <multicol> tag. However, it only works in Netscape so it might not be of any use unless you're designing for an audience on a LAN who only use NS. If it's for the web-at-large then remember something like 96% of users out there use IE.<br />

This little bit on using CSS for columns might also be useful to you: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://css.nu/examples/css-columns.html">http://css.nu/examples/css-columns.html</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
Neil<!--content-->This element is not a part of any HTML standard or draft and it never will be. It is only supported by 4.x series Netscape browser versions. Its use is not recommended<br />

<br />
but you could wait until css3 is let loose and use this<br />
<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/">http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
but, that is very limited to browsers as css3 is not supported very well yet.<br />
<br />
if you want a multi-column then you have to code it the hard way.<!--content-->
