The first comprehensive draft of a grid layout for CSS was created by Phil Cupp at Microsoft in 2011 and implemented in Internet Explorer 10 behind a -ms-vendor prefix.The syntax was restructured and further refined through several iterations in the CSS Working Group, led primarily by Elika Etemad and Tab Atkins Jr.
This template creates a two-column layout, where contents within the columns will have the same height, with any extra whitespace distributed throughout the shorter columns contents. It is mainly intended for use in portals.
The columns-start template and its child templates column and columns-end can be used to make a fixed number of columns (up to 5) that will span the entire page above a certain minimum width (100 ems for 5 columns, 80 for 4, 60 for 3 and 2). Below the minimum width, each column starting from the right will gracefully display below another one ...
To create columns in an article one may use {} and {}. Note that this is not supported by Internet Explorer version 9 and below or Opera version 11 and below — see {{ Div col }} for details. To illustrate the use of these templates, this example uses the {{ lorem }} template to generate Lorem ipsum placeholder text.

An HTML class, or multiple space-delimited classes, to apply to the columns. |style= CSS styling to apply to the columns. |small=yes Sets font size to 90%. |content= Content to apply to the columns.

It automatically breaks the available screen space into equal parts, meaning, for instance, that it is not necessary to guess how many columns to use and then figure out the dividing point(s), e.g., the halfway point to divide the list into two columns, or ...
The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2. A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. Therefore, with a 2px border, the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within the screen.
