This violates that constraint. " A length is a dimension. (...) A dimension is a number immediately followed by a unit identifier. (...) A number is either an <integer> or zero or more decimal digits followed by a dot (.) followed by one or more decimal digits. " http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-values/#lengths Are you saying that column-width must not be using a real number (eg column-width: 12.5px;)? > > I suggest that we instead state that there is a minimum size for > columns (1px? ua-specific?), and that values less than this minimum > are clamped to the minimum.

Isn't those equivalent? http://test.csswg.org/suites/css3-multicol/nightly-unstable/html4/multicol-count-large-001.htm http://test.csswg.org/suites/css3-multicol/nightly-unstable/html4/multicol-count-large-002.htm In both these tests, the column-count is 1000 while the width of the multi-column container is 192px. Is your message related somehow to these 2 tests ? -------- please put the text "css3-multicol" in the subject and not "css-multicol" in the future. Gérard
