CSS3 multi-column layout: How to style a particular column
css, css3pie, javascript, jquery
Solution
Although a little short, the answer is "no" - at least, nothing in the W3C's official spec says it's possible.
Problem
I want `**bold**` the 1st column in the CSS multi-column layout ``` <div style="columns:12em">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum</div> ``` Is it possible? Edit: As the question will give an answer to both my question and the posters question I thought I'll extend the question with mine... Q: Is it possible through javascript/jquery to know at what character the column gets splited?
