I have a footer styled for my Wordpress site, which is not appearing to reach the full width of the site on mobile. Also, I am always able to scroll width ways, as if the site is wider than the mobile viewport. This only happens on mobile portrait, not on desktop or tablet.
I have all widths set to 100% (the header, the body, the footer and several others) but it seems the footer width renders as 1333px width whereas the header and body widths render as 1349px (as in inspect dev tools on laptop).
I have no fixed widths for any elements set in pixels of over 300px.
The footer is placed outside of the main and the main container but within the body.
I don't think any of the elements within the footer are the problem, as I have removed them and replaced them but the same problem still exists.
Photo included: Gap to right of footer
This problem maybe because one of your HTML tags on the entire webpage (out of the footer) is bigger then the screen
This problem not from the footer,please check the other parts of the webpage
Hi Hazem and thank you for your reply again. Update: I now know what was causing this problem. A left margin set in pixels on my content div that was set to 80% width was adding to the gap to the right of the footer, but only on mobile view. I then realised that my media queries were not working but I have now sorted that out, hence I have sorted the problem.
Thank you for your help.

i am sorry to disturb you all, but i want to understand how a certain margin responsiveness works.
As you can see on this site http://www.trade-ideas.com/about-us/ the navbar, the paragraphs, the h1, h2 and the footer maintain the same left-margin as you resize the browser window (with firefox the effect it's more clear).
It's like when the elements reach the limit of the left margin (that is mean zero), they restart just on the same distance (the same margin-left) that they where before i was starting resize my browser width.
I've noticed that the navbar included in bootstrap also has this left margin responsiveness: as i resize in width my browser's window, the navbar continue to stay in the same left-margin range, restarting every time he reach the zero margin-left.
In fact, on this bootstrap page you can find the exact same effect in all the page's elements (the navbar and the div box on the body) : http://getbootstrap.com/examples/navbar/
With firebug i've tried to search what parameter set this particular effect, but i'm not an expert, and i didn't find a solution.
So, my question is: this left-margin responsiveness it's generated by a set of #media queries instructions to a set of width? Or there is something that i'm missing?
Thank you in advance for all the help that you'll give me.

p.s.: i noticed that on http://getbootstrap.com/examples/navbar/ if i delete "margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;" the effect that i need doesn't show up anymore.
I tried to create a div container with that margin auto on my site, but i was not able to ricreate the effect (maybe that "margin-left-right:auto" it's just a part of the effect).
The media queries are the ones that make sure the website is responsive. The example: http://getbootstrap.com/examples/navbar/ is using media queries to set the width of the container. If you set the media queries to change when the screen width is 700px and when you make the width of the screen smaller. The media queries will register the px of the screen and when the width of the screen is equal 700px the container will change.
I am trying to create a sticky footer on a custom WordPress theme. I have looked at many online tutorials with no success.
It does not seem to be working responsively, it sticks, but as soon as I re-size the browser the height increases.
The footer needs to be responsive but also stick to the bottom of the page regardless of content size.
The website in question is:

Would really appreciate some help on this one.
Thanks :)
The problem is not your footer expanding, it is related to image dimensions and body.
When you resize your browser (smaller), the background-images' size adapts to the viewport's width, not its height. That means that at a certain point, the image doesn't vertically fit the viewport anymore.
Then what is visible is the background-color of your body.custom-background, which is, coincidentally, exactly the same color as your footer's background (background-color: #cccccc;).
You can change the background-color of your body to distinguish it from the footer. You cannot resize the image to full-browser width AND height simultaneously without distortions.
Sticky footers: I noticed your footer & its wrapper are not positioned fixed or relative, which is the common approach for sticky footers. Then position it with the bottom property.
Fixed position:
will stick to bottom
will not scroll
will always be visible
Relative position:
will stick to bottom
will scroll
will only be visible on reaching page bottom

Problem was with headerwrap which was not closed where it should be and with body height.
I have some webpages that do not reach the bottom of my browser viewport. It's particularly annoying because the footer is full width, so it hovers.
What i want to do is place the footer at least at the bottom of the viewport. I do not want to fix it as per the sticky footer solutions.
To make it more difficult, the footer is variable height.
Is it possible either via css/javascript for fixed height/variable height scenarios?
Try this:
x=$(window).height();
$('.content').css('min-height',x+'px');
Help it works
I have a similar problem as Stackoverflow.com web site has. The problem is width a banner above the content or body of the web site. I want to be able to reduce the width of the browser page but keep the size of the banner no matter what resolution is running the browser.
Example, if you reduce the width of this page you will see that a scroll bar will appear so you can move the page to the right and see the content hide. However, if you look at the banner the banner will have the new width that was reduced the page.
If i understand correctly may be you can define min-width in to the body. Write like this:
body{
min-width:975px;
}
It's mostly happened when the element have auto width & his parent didn't have any width define.
I have a background-image used to separate my page footer from the main content. It displays fine when viewed in a browser window wider than the supported min-width of the page. However, if the window is resized to be narrower the image is pushed to the right relative to the main body.
How it displays in wide browser windows:
How it displays in narrow browser windows:
Can I set the main body content not to push right up against the left-hand side of the window, but rather keep the 30 pixel margin when viewed in a narrow browser window?
The page is live here if the CSS will be helpful.
Yes, you should give the <body> a min-width. Just a little above 1000 works for me on your website, but I don't have an exact value. Probably the exact width of the ribbon.
-edit-
ribbon (1000px) + border (2 * 1px) = 1002px, that should do it.
The problem is that your #footerTop and #footer are too big and are responding to the window shrink. The way I would get around this is by adding the background to the #footerContainer instead. If you align it to the centre it will always work since #footerContainer does not have a fixed width.
This will also mean that you won't get the horizontal scroll bar when the browser window is resized to 999px wide. It all depends on how small you want the window to be able to go
