CSS Properties: How the number of columns will be determined by other properties?

Go to Exercise page

Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Specifies the document type and version of HTML -->
<html>
<head>
<title>How the number of columns will be determined by other properties</title><!-- Sets the title of the HTML document -->
<style type="text/css"> /* Begins a CSS style block */
div{
column-color: auto; /* Sets the column color for the division element to be determined automatically based on other properties */
     }
</style><!-- Ends the CSS style block -->
</head>
<body>
<div><!-- Starts a division element -->
<h1>w3resource Tutorial</h1><!-- Inserts an h1 element with the text "w3resource Tutorial" -->
<p>CSS, stands for Cascading Style Sheet is a computer language to describe presentation of HTML and XML web documents.In all the examples of our tutorials, we have used HTML for implementing CSS.</p><!-- Inserts a paragraph element with text describing CSS -->
</div><!-- Ends the division element -->
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

  • This HTML document demonstrates how the number of columns will be determined by other properties, specifically the column-color property.
  • The CSS style block defines rules for the division element.
  • The column-color property for the division element is set to "auto," which means the column color will be determined automatically based on other properties.
  • However, the column-color property alone may not directly determine the number of columns; it primarily sets the color for the columns.
  • The HTML body contains an h1 element with the text "w3resource Tutorial" and a paragraph element describing CSS.
  • The number of columns will be determined by other properties not explicitly specified in this code snippet. The column-color property, in this case, is set to "auto" to let the browser determine the column color based on default or inherited styles.
