<html>
<head>
<title>How heading2 element span across all columns</title><!-- Sets the title of the HTML document -->
<style type="text/css"> /* Begins a CSS style block */
.xyz {
 -webkit-column-count: 3; /* Sets the number of columns for WebKit browsers to 3 */
 column-count: 3; /* Sets the number of columns for all browsers to 3 */
 } /* Defines styles for elements with the class "xyz" */

h2 {
 -webkit-column-span: all; /* Specifies that the h2 element should span across all columns for WebKit browsers */
 column-span: all; /* Specifies that the h2 element should span across all columns for all browsers */
 } /* Defines styles for h2 elements */
</style><!-- Ends the CSS style block -->

Explanation:

This HTML document demonstrates how to make the <h2> element span across all columns within a <div> element.
The CSS style block defines rules for elements with the class "xyz".
-webkit-column-count: 3; and column-count: 3; set the number of columns to 3 for WebKit browsers and all browsers respectively.
The CSS rule h2 specifies styles for <h2> elements.
-webkit-column-span: all; and column-span: all; specify that the <h2> element should span across all columns for WebKit browsers and all browsers respectively.
