Hi
I have to create two columns without column grids. Each column has links that appears in rows. Is there any option in DITA to create columns without grids?
Regards
Julie

Hi Julie,
I do not entirely understand your question.
Do you want to output a table without the borders? In HTML or PDF?
Can you post as XML the part of your topic in which you are trying to accomplish this?
Regards,
Radu

Hi
I want to divide the page into three sections. First section should be a single column for the introduction. Second section of the page should appear in two columns for the items to be listed in two columns. Third section of the page should again display as a single column for the conclusion. The output is XHTML. Let me know whether DITA allows me to do the column.
Regards
Julie

Hi Julie,
Can you send me a picture with the layout you have in mind?

Is this close to what you intend to do?
