Why CSS is not working as desired on android? - css

The CSS media query for small devices isn't working for Android when screen is rotated in landscape mode, the background color isn't changing, and the form overflows.
The site works good, when screen rotation is turned off, I don't know why is this happening, since there is no problem in IOS, only in Android.
The CSS code:
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
*:focus {
outline: none;
}
body,
html {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
body {
background: linear-gradient(to top left, #5487ab 17%, #ffffff 102%) fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 549px) {
.houseImg {
display: none;
}
.container {

This happens because your android device screen has a height greater than 549px (considering your media query specifications). Naturally in landscape mode, this height becomes device width and hence your media query is ignored.
this is the media query you can target for almost all phones
/* phones (portrait and landscape) ----------- */
#media only screen and (min-width : 320px) {
/* Styles */
}
/* phones (portrait only) ----------- */
#media only screen and (max-width : 480px) {
/* Styles */
}

It is not possible to accomplish responsive design with only one media query. For making responsive design right, please visit and check this site, where media queries are explained and are examples on how to use it.
Android phone and iOS phone doesn't necessarily use the same width and height, most iOS phones uses width: 375px and height: 667px(or width: 667px and height: 375px when in landscape mode), although that is only for iPhone 6/7/8 excluding Plus and other models, you can check width/height which phone use which in Chrome/Mozzila Firefox/etc. in developer mode while emulating mobile devices.

Giving fixed width for DOM elements can mess up the view in small devices. particularly when the given width is not available as the device width goes less than that width.
So while writing media queries for smaller devices, say mobile phones, It would be great if you replace all the fixed widths to percentages. So that they will not overflow from the available space and will stay within the device width.
If you are having issues specifically for landscape, you can handle them using media query and orientation combination.
#media all and (max-width: 768px) and (orientation: landscape) {
}
Above code is enough for writing rules for small devices when used in landscape orientation.

Unsmooth parallax effect during scrolling - with border-radius method

I’ve just started to learn HTML/CSS. My goal is to prepare a parallax effect on my test website. I constructed a code with parallax effect in CSS, but the problem is that the images located under the container is unsmooth during scrolling the page (the image extends and rips).
Please consider that I used border-radius method which rounds corners of the containers under which an images are located. I noted that when I cut border-radius method then the unsmoothing effect doesn’t occur. But my goal is to leave this border-radius method unchanged
I know that I can construct similar parallax effect in JS, but my goal is to understand reason why parallax effect doesn’t work correctly in CSS together with border-radius method.
I focused that the unwanted effect occurs only in the case when the browser page is narrowed. Please see the differences between the effect in Codepen one with code (part of the browser page in which finishing page is showed is narrowed):
https://codepen.io/marartgithub/pen/vYpPEjQ
and second one in full page (the problem doesn’t occur):
https://codepen.io/marartgithub/full/vYpPEjQ
I'm sorry if the problem is not the biggest one and for some of you could be insignificant, but my goal is to understand why not all which I wanted works fine to be better programmer.
I would use a :before pseudo tag to achieve this effect. Here are the changes I made:
I remove the about bg div and set each box to flexbox as that will be a cleaner way to acheive this layout.
Then, I removed the border-radius from .about-us-box and added it to .about-us-box:before. In the :before styling, I set it the size of the parent container (.about-us-box) and then set it to have a border radius. You will see box-shadow attribute as border-radius doesn't curve the inside corner. Box-shadow takes care of that for us.

media query sizing and positioning font

failed how to apply Media queries to my style sheet

I'm not familiar with media queries from last 2 days I try a lot and search for several time but still I'm failed to add queries to my style sheet...
I just want to apply media queries into my css for all devices. any one can help me set the proper width and height for all div,table.
here's code
#media only screen and (min-width: 320px) and (max-width: 979px) {
html ,body{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
/* overflow-x: hidden;*/
text-align: right; direction: rtl;
}
body {

text-align: center;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
opacity: .98;
}

width: 950px;
background: #fff;
padding: 10px;
margin-top:70px;

box-shadow:0px 0px 20px #fff;
min-height:100%;
}
.container{
width:100%;
background:#fff;
min-height:100%;
position:relative;
padding-bottom:105px;
}
#footer{
background:#eee;

}

top:0px;
width:100%;
height:50px;
z-index:1;
padding-left:0px;
padding-right: 0px;
background: #fff;
text-align: right; direction: rtl;
}
div.content {
width: 950px;
padding: 10px 0px 20px 0px;
text-align: left;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
min-height:100%;
}}
<div class="container">
<div id="Layer1">Top Nav</div>
<table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' class='body' align='center'>
<tr>
<td><div class='content'>Content here</div></td></tr></table><div id='footer'>Footer</div></div>
It's not very clear what you're after, but for obtaining the responsive design, then you should use % rather than fixed widths, ie - px.
If this isn't what you're after, please create a fiddle.
A side note - setting opacity on the body will affect all the elements that sit on top of it. It's better to use rgba on the background rather than setting opacity.
body {
/* background:#77d5fb;
opacity: .98;*/
background-color: rgba(119,213,251, .98);
text-align: center;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
You should remove the 950px, since that will go outside the container if the width of the body is less than 950px. Set these to percentages rather than fixed widths. Also there's no point in using table if you're not using them for their purpose. Use floats with % width values (if needed), rather than table.
table.body {
width: 90%; /* or 100%, depending on what you're after */
/* other css styles */
}
div.content {
width: 90%; /* or 100%, depending on what you're after */
/* other css styles */
}
You start by doing mobile first, like so:
#media (min-width: 320px) and (max-width: 560px) {
// styles here
}
#media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px) {
// styles for that size here
}
#media (max-width: 1024px) {
// desktops
}
#media (max-width: 1200px) {
// large desktops
}
If you want orientation, then you need to do:
#media (min-device-width: XXXpx) and (max-device-width: XXXpx) and (orientation:portrait)
*/ or orientation:landscape */ {
// styles
}
Important
You need this in your header before ANY media queries will work
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />

How to create Bootstrap 3 responsive text using rem units

I am attempting to create a rem based site using Twitter-Bootstrap 3. In particular my text is not behaving responsively. It is just wrapping without changing font size or line height. I added a color change to the #media statements to visually track the break points. I'm not seeing any color changes either so the custom #media code is also not working. From what I have researched, it should be working. Obviously, I'm missing something. Please take a look at https://jsfiddle.net/dlearman/995w62e0/4/ and steer me in the right direction.

Please make sure there is no space between the # and media because CSS sees #media as a media query.

Skeleton css columns

I have recently discovered skeleton.css and it is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't quite understand columns, but the example for buttons did exactly what I wanted as far as stacking elements as the screen narrows. What I have works beautifully, but I am not yet savvy enough with css to make the buttons into columns. The html and css code I have cut down to just what works. Any suggestions as to how to convert buttons to columns would be greatly appreciated.
