var iColumns = oObject.cols;
alert (iColumns);
}

Remarks
Specifying this number can speed up the processing of the table. Windows Internet Explorer 8 will only render tables up to 1000 columns. To force Windows Internet Explorer 7 rendering mode, see How Do I Take Advantage of the New Features in Internet Explorer 8.
