Figure H-6. Change gutter widths with the <multicol>
gutter attribute (Netscape 4 only)
H.2.1.3. The width attribute
Normally, the
<multicol>
tag fills the current width of the current text
flow. To have your multiple columns occupy a thinner space, or to ex-
tend them beyond the visible window, use the
width
attribute to specify
the overall width of the
<multicol>
tag. The columns are resized so that
may be specified as an absolute number of pixels or as a percentage of
the width of the current text flow.
