Side-by-side columns, based on CSS float.

This has the advantage of more cross-device-accessible behaviour, as (unlike HTML <table>s) they will wrap on display windows too narrow to show them side-by-side. Template:Column Templates Navbox

Parameters

All optional and applicable to {{Col-float}} / {{Start col-float}} and {{Col-float-break}} / {{Break col-float}} except firstcol:

Template:Hlist

Width of the next – or, with Col-float/Start col-float, the first – column. IE-based browsers require a specified width, so defaults to 30.0em.
class
For any styling defined using classes.
style
For any additional styling.

{{Col-float}} can be used with numbered parameters for columns (i.e. |1= is the first column, |2= is the second, and so on). However, lists have to be preceded with <nowiki/> and a newline, and tables have to use Template:Tn.
