 Are you sure?

   1. Those who remove width: 100% from CSS I guess know what they do
   2. cols="100%" is invalid XHTML and is either ignored by the user agent
 or interpretes is as "100" (which, without CSS, is not good at all).
   3. At any rate, width: 100% in CSS overrules the width calculated from
 the cols attribute.
