All versions of Internet Explorer through to version 9 and Opera through to version 11.0 do not support columns. See here for more information.
This template is a shortcut for producing columns using CSS (more info). It generates the CSS for various browsers. Supported browsers are the current versions of Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

The default value is 1px solid #AAA
.

<div style="{{column-count|3}} {{column-rule}}">Lorem ipsum...</div>
(default) will produce:

Using the {{column-gap}} template as well gives more flexibility on spacing.
<div style="{{column-count|3}}{{column-gap|4em}} {{column-rule|2px solid #00C}}">Lorem ipsum...</div>
