Hi,

I would like to know how to use columns. I don't like how the words streaches across the whole screen. How do I make it use like half or one-third of the screen?

Thanks in advance for the help.

For a column that is half of the screen and centered:

div.column {
width: 50%;
margin: auto;
}

.....

<div class="column">

<p>All your texty text goes here.</p>

</div>

Post back if you need any more help :) .

I also posted a link in the FAQs to a bunch of column layouts that might give you some ideas...
