Explanation
The multicol tag displays a page content in multiple column. It works only in
Netscape 3, 4.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=shift_jis">
<title>Sample</title>
</head>
<body>
<multicol cols="3" gutter="20" width="250">
Netscape 3 has the multicol tag to specify multiple column. However, other browsers have not supported it and created multiple column using the table tag for a long time. They have now created multiple column using style sheets, but they have never done it (in the original purpose of the multiple column) like the multicol tag.
</multicol>
