css google-chrome column-count css-multicolumn-layout

Column-count is not working in Chrome

I have a text splitted in 4 columns and it works perfectly in Safari I don't know why I can see just 2 columns in Google Chrome.

Tested with Chrome 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

#people{
 -webkit-column-count:4;
 -moz-column-count:4;
 column-count:4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
}

.keeptogether{
  display:inline-block;
  width:100%
}

Solution

Add display: flex; to your #people id in your css:

#people{
  display: flex;
 -webkit-column-count: 4; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
 -moz-column-count: 4; /* Firefox */
 column-count: 4;
 -webkit-column-gap:.5em;
 -moz-column-gap:.5em;
 column-gap:.5em;
 padding-bottom:2px;
 font-size:18px;
 line-height:21px;
}

.keeptogether{
  display:inline-block;
  width:100%;
}

<div id=people>
