H.2.3. Effective Multicolumn Layouts
We've offered advice on columns throughout these sections. Here is a
quick recap of our tips for creating effective column layouts:
•
Use a small number of columns.
•
Don't use excessively wide gutters.
•
Ensure that embedded elements such as images and tables fit in
your columns on most displays.
•
Precede each
<multicol>
tag with a
<p>
tag to improve your doc-
ument's appearance on other browsers.
•
Avoid nesting
<multicol>
tags more than two deep.
