- <p>Columns can be moved
+ <p>A column that is moved from its natural position is called a region in
+ this specification. Columns can be moved using floating or absolute
+ positioning.
<div class=example> <img alt="sample rendering" src=regions.png>
+ <p>In this example, the multicol layout is changed so that the image
+ (which appears first in the markup) spans two columns and is floated to
+ the top, thereby escaping its natural column. The first column, which
+ holds the start of the textual content is also floated to the top,
+ spanning two columns, and therefore ends up just under the image. Du to
+ the ‘<code class=css>visibility: collapse</code>’ setting on
+ the first column, the second column will move into its space.
