Thanks!

check mediaqueries.js for IE5+, its working fine, you just have to paste script in site.

Then for example IE7 is rendering correct page size to resolution

Do we have to consider Browser Zoom when building a WebSite.?

I am building a site for my friend, He specified a bug for me. He said,"When I Zoom in/out the browser, the Website layout “breaks apart” but it is working fine in 100% Browser Zoom."
Please let me know the Standard for web development for Browser Zooming
In CSS there is something called "em". Different from pixels, they adjust themselves to screen settings. With most CSS elements, zooms should not be a problem, but if you are really having trouble, I would recommend using em as units
usually I don't consider zooming but if you want a good website that shows ok with different screen resolutions like in mobile browsers or tablet you'd better use responsive style sheets.
you do not need to write it by your own. you can use style sheets like twitter bootstrap which already supports responsive web pages
you can download it from here enter link description here
The webpage should be responsive enough like to work for "smaller screens" that is more or less how it will work for your CSS when they zoom in.
Make sure you have min-width or min-height set to your body or general container so, when it gets to this minimums it just stais as it looks.
For example, for the SO webpage, you have the div with id "content" inside the general div.container that has a width of 980px, so if you zoom in a lot it just shows the bottom scrollbar.

How to check whether my website is responsive or not?

I have been given a task to convert an already hosted website into responsive. My working knowledge on CSS is below average.
In that quest, I heard about media queries. I looked for a solution, but what I got was more confusion. Media Queries? I tried responsinator.com and checked my website in that. Actually I don't know how to know whether a website is responsive or not.
My website fits the mobile screens. Header and footer automatically adjusts themselves.
There is a big slider and it just got cropped, but still loads images and works fine. If my website is responsive, how come the slider get cropped?
To make a responsive CSS, Will I have to make any changes to the values in my already existing CSS? Or will I have to just add my styles (without any edits) into the media queries given below.
#media(max-width:480px){
/*PUT YOUR CLASSES STYLES HERE*/
}
your media query defines which part of your css to look in, think of it like an if statement.
When it falls within a media query in your css file, your css has be defined to cater for that screen size,
Just because your page objects crop when you make the screen smaller does not make your site responsive,
best take your phone or tablet and visit your site, if the user interface is simple, easy and smooth, then you dont have to worry, but if you have a desktop styled site on a phone as wide as your numpad on the keyboard, you have some work to do.
It's quite difficult from my experience to "convert" a static website into a responsive one, especially if you do not have good CSS knowledge. Try to find elements with a fixed width and make them fluid by experimenting with max-width and procentual width values. Hope this helps.

Safari Mobile experiencing strange spacing issues

I am about to launch a new Joomla site, and the only minor bug holding me up (not really effecting launch, just annoying) is this strange issue with iPhone (using Safari Mobile). You can see it in the image attached or use http://synthphone.com/ to see it.
Any ideas? I haven't noticed any other issue on any other browser or device. Link to the page is http://www.complisolutions.com/services.
Thanks for any assistance!
It's most likely a font size issue - note the word 'environmental' - looks to me like that cannot fit in the space allocated between the image and the left side of the screen.
Try remove that word to see if this is the case.
What you'll want to do, is use media queries to firstly make that image full page width at small screen resolutions and secondly to remove the float.

web app CSS trouble

I'm trying to present my notecards in a web app style.
I'm not worried about caching, or making it work offline.
I just want it render well in the iOS browser.
Here's the link: http://kaninepete.com/flashcard/review.php?Sec=3
I want it to look the same as if you re-size your browser window to 320x480.
The problem is, it always renders a huge amount of blank space off to the side.
I want to lock the scrolling to only the vertical axis (like flipping through notecards),
but also have the text at a readable size.
You can use CSS media queries to set your template on a certain width/height model. This works well and can adjust specifically for iPhone screens.
As for the font size issue you'll probably need to just spend time testing. With that it's going to require some type of virtual simulator or a real iPhone where you can test the site. I just loaded it up onto my iPhone 4 and I see what you mean about additional space - this is just because of your page size. Try messing with CSS media queries I think you'll find the answer in there.
Here is a very handy Google search to hopefully get you started on the right track. CSS3 has a lot of new features. Many of them geared towards mobile :)
Reading your question again, here's some suggestions based on what I think you're looking for.
Make sure your document is valid HTML before you continue. Safari on iOS supports HTML 5, so I'd suggest targeting that, unless your platform targets something different already.
If you just want it to run well in iOS Safari, then code for that. If you want it to look similarly in other browsers, however, then it may be necessary to look at styles targeting the iOS device (via width/height). See http://davidbcalhoun.com/2010/using-mobile-specific-html-css-javascript (It seems hacky, but based on some research a week ago, this still seems to be the suggested route.)
You've got CSS that shouldn't be in there if you want to target multiple browsers. overflow:hidden and set pixel widths.
Generally, I'd say you'll want to tweak your markup as well. List items or headers would be much better than just simple breaks.
Maybe I'm just oversimplifying the question, but it looks to me like all you really need to do is wrap each notecard in a div, perhaps giving each div a <div class="notecard_wrapper">. then just attach a stylesheet that specifies the width and height you want for each card.
This page explains Safari's viewport and how to change it. It will probably fix the font size problem and maybe help with the page size.
Basically, Safari by default simulates a screen that's about 900px wide, when it's actually about 300px (so the page appears zoomed out). This makes pages designed for real computers render properly, but for a web app you usually don't want it to zoom the page at all. The viewport tag should let you control that.

Website home page resolution issue

I have redesigned only the Home page using the DIV tags from Traditonal HTML tables,
http://www.cricandcric.com
After that my page looks scattering across the screen, if the screen resolution increases.
for the lower screen resolution its looking good, IE and Mozilla compatible
I am not able to make out the mistake which is done, can any one help me check this out.
Can any one share the resources if they on how to make the website which is developed using either HTML or IE more compatible with all VERSIONs of IE and Firefox, with all the different resolutions format, it should work fine,
if any one has any good article share the link to me.
thanks in advance
your "middle1" section has a width defined as 1004px so should be almost the same size as the navigation, however the contents two tables and a div are positioned such that they dont float (certainly I cant see any floating in your CSS).
You're also using tables for layouts - i think thats the crux of the problem. Looks like you are trying to make a three column layout using CSS - have a look at this example: http://ago.tanfa.co.uk/css/layouts/css-3-column-layout-v1.html
I had similar problems for my website and it turned out that fixed width for div elements changed the rendering of the page depending on monitor resolution or screen size. I fixed the problem by using relative width by % instead of px for divs. It was a css issue.
