Aside

I’m writing about the CSS3 Multi-column layout module and I notice that WebKit supports a series of proprietary properties: –webkit-column-break-after, –webkit-column-break-before, and –webkit-column-break-inside. However, despite the documentation saying that they’re implemented in Safari 3+, I can’t seem to get any of them to work.

Has anyone reading this ever seen an example of these in action? I’ve searched for demos but have found nothing. If you know anything about this, please leave me a comment; your help would be gratefully appreciated.
