title: Formatting List Results as Tables with CSS - Specified Columns Methods
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
Sometimes you want the results of a ``<$list>`` widget to be formatted in the form of multiple columns, instead of just one straight listing. This method uses ~CSS to set up listing as columns and assumes that you know how many columns you want. The method here is to create a style that reflects the number of columns you want your table to be in, and then apply that style to the resulting list output.
For other table-making techniques see also:

* [[Formatting List Results as Tables (no CSS)]]
!!! 1) Create a tiddler for the columns tagged with `$:/tags/Stylesheet`, containing:
```
/* FOUR COLUMN MODE */
.fourcolumns {
display:block;
-moz-column-count:4;
-moz-column-gap:1em;
-webkit-column-count: 4;
-webkit-column-gap:1em;
}
```
Note the various places you need to indicate the number of columns
!!! 2) Then format your output like this:
```
@@.fourcolumns
<$list filter="[tag[Filter Operators]]" variable="foo"><br>
<<foo>>
</$list>
@@
```
!! Example showing partial list of filter operators
<style>
.fourcolumns {
display:block;
-moz-column-count:4;
-moz-column-gap:1em;
-webkit-column-count: 4;
-webkit-column-gap:1em;
}
</style>
@@.fourcolumns
<$list filter="[tag[Filter Operators]limit[24]]" variable="foo"><br>
<<foo>>
</$list>
