Name
COLS — NN 4 IE 3 HTML n/a
Synopsis
COLS=”columnCount"Optional
The number of columns of the table. The HTML specification never
adopted this attribute. In HTML 4.0, the functionality of this
attribute is covered by the COLGROUP and
COL elements. In the meantime, the
COLS attribute is recognized by current browsers.
The attribute assists the browser in preparation for rendering the
table. Without this attribute, the browser relies on its
interpretation of all downloaded TR and
TD elements to determine how the table is to be
divided.
Example
<TABLE COLS=4>...</TABLE>
Value
Any positive integer.
Default
None.
