Good day,

I have created a test page to fiddle around with a multi-column layout: 
http://www.nextdesigns.ca/multi.htm

I have a single content div with a column-width set to 380px, and column-gap 
set to 40px, and column-count set to auto. I had presumed that the div would 
create as many 380px-wide columns as necessary to contain the content. What 
surprised me was that as I increased or decreased the width of the browser 
window, so would the width of the columns increase or decrease.

Is there some way to make the width of those columns predictable without adding 
a non-auto width to the div?

Also, when I return the clientWidth of the columnified div, I actually return 
the width of the browser viewport, as that div is too wide to be accommodated 
by the browser viewport. Is there any way to return the amount of pixels the 
div takes up?

Regards,

Chris
