I am making a web for desktop, tablet and mobile screens. For this I am using css media queries. When I test my website on desktop browser and when I scale my web bowser down then it does change its layout when it reaches to max-width 740px as mentioned in css. But the problem is when I test this on my mobile then it does not change its layout to fit mobile screens.
I am using 12 columns layout system and using less css. Please help me why it does not change its layout on mobile phones to fit mobile screens.
Here is my css or less css to be precise
html, body {
height: 100%;
//overflow: hidden;
}
body {
min-width: 360px;
background-color: #ffffff;
#page {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
.right {
position: relative;
right: 0;
}
// Extend column system (from defaults/layout.css)
.row {
clear: both;
> .container {
max-width: 1024px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0 2% 0 2%;
.container {
max-width: 100%;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
&.one {
width: 8%;
}
&.two {
width: 16%;
}
&.three {
width: 25%;
}
&.four {
width: 33%;
}
&.five {
width: 41%;
}
&.six {

}
&.seven {

}
&.eight {

}
&.nine {

}
&.ten {

}
&.eleven {
width: 91%;
}
&.twelve {
width: 100%;
}
}
}
}
}

Try adding this to the top of your HTML page:
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
</head>
That should let the mobile browser know that the page you be rendered at the size of your device/browser, instead of faking the screen size of a desktop computer (and thus confusing your media queries).

I was curious to what this code does. I found it on a site, and I am wondering if it has anything to with device optimization. It seems to effect the whole page through all devices. Especially the part that says "#media screen and (min-width:992px)".

I know that this is css, but it seems like clever code to make the page optimizable through all devices. It is in an html embed on this site https://preview.webflow.com/preview/uniqlo-responsive?preview=aacb16f7eb6a5df89780c3f5bbee094d. You can go in there and double click on an html embed, and the code will be there.
What you're looking at is known as a media query.
The min-width: 992px you see denotes that the CSS inside of it will only trigger of viewports that are at least 992px wide (which is the equivalent of a laptop). You can think of media queries as 'conditional CSS logic' to control how a website looks on different devices.
Note that the media queries pertain to the browser width / height, not the screen width / height. As such, manually resizing your browser window will trigger media query breakpoints.
In this specific case, .t-cell { display: table-cell; vertical-align: top; } is applied when the viewport is at least 992px wide. This will make the content display in a tabular format on larger devices, while the content retains display: block for mobile devices (allowing it to stack).
I have a website I am working and the form isn't sitting in the right place it keeps shifting and moving I spoke to tech support they gave me some code it worked for a bit now it's off again can someone please help.
This was the code:
button.et_bloom_submit_subscription {
float: right;
position: fixed;
top: 7px;
right: 310px;
}
.et_bloom .et_bloom_form_content .et_bloom_popup_input {
width: 25%;
}
button.et_bloom_submit_subscription {
width: 21% !important;
}
.et_bloom .et_bloom_inline_form {
left padding: 60px;
}
.et_bloom .et_bloom_inline_form {
margin: 0;
}
.et_bloom .et_bloom_header_outer {
display: none;
}
#media only screen and (max-width:1100px) {
.page-id-453 .et_bloom_form_content {
width: 100% !important;
margin: 0 auto !important;
}
.page-id-453 .et_bloom_form_content .et_bloom_popup_input {
width: 25% !important;
margin-right:2%;
}
.page-id-453 .et_bloom_form_container button {
width: 45% !important;
padding:13px;
top:auto !important;
left: auto !important;
margin: auto !important;
float: right !important;
}
}
And this is the website www.askleewellard.com (form is right below the graphic).
Boostrap 3 comes with this:
#media (min-width: 1200px)
.container {
width: 1170px;
}
#media (min-width: 992px)
.container {
width: 970px;
}
#media (min-width: 768px)
.container {
width: 750px;
}
Can I freely add more min-width cases? what considerations should I have?
I want to have more cases between 1200px and, say, 1920px... because in a 1920px I end up having a container of 1170px and that sucks because it could be, say, 1300px
It's not as simple as that. Bootstrap 3 comes with 4 classes:
xs (extra small) 0-768
sm (small) 768-992
md (medium) 992-1200
lg (large) >1200
And the container class is linked to this classes, so if you want to have other stepps between this width's you must start with adding a new class for example: xxs (extra extra small) 0-384 (witch is not implemented in bootstrap right now), you have to add this classes:
.col-xxs-1, .col-xxs-2, .col-xxs-3, .col-xxs-4,
.col-xxs-5, .col-xxs-6, .col-xxs-7, .col-xxs-8,
.col-xxs-9, .col-xxs-10, .col-xxs-11, .col-xxs-12 {
min-height: 1px;
padding-left: 15px;
padding-right: 15px;
position: relative;
}

And also the container class you wrote:
#media (min-width: 384px)
.container {
width: 372px;
}
As you can see, it is very complicated, and it's recomanded not to use bootstrap if you want to customize it very very much.
when you need to use different break-points for container class, you may face 2 scenarios:
Scenario 1:
You know the breaking point. In this case, you can modify the SASS or LESS files, or simply create a customized version at http://getbootstrap.com/customize/#container-sizes
Scenario 2:
The breaking point is variable. In this case you use the class .container-fluid . This class can be (and is usually) used with container class in order to have some control of content inside, but the same way, you can create full screen layouts with a .semi-container class which is a somewhere between the .container class and the full width of the screen. Example:
<div class="container-fluid"><!-- full width -->
<div class="semi-container container-fluid"><!-- max-width -->
<div class="container"><!-- container -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
and then the CSS for .semi-container would be
.semi-container{max-width:1300px} /* or whatever you need */
Of course you can create more breakpoints etc. As long as you're not altering the bootstrap stylesheet it you won't affect the framework.
In reality you need to make cases for 320, 480, 600 etc... More than that.
In truth the bootstrap grid is only a starting point. I mean, come on - you can expect that everything under 768 deserves one rule.
As comprehensive as it is, bootstrap is still only supposed to be a starting point.
I've done tons of things like:
#media (max-width:480px) {
col-xs-4 {
width: 49.999%;
}
}
Anyone who tells you you can't needs a smack - just make sure to test what you've done.
Since your example only targets .container you're pretty safe. All the percentage based widths under it should work as expected.
My wordpress blog (workmoneyfun.com) is on Genesis Framework Prose Theme which is fully mobile responsive. However, I increased the width of website content area which has resulted in non-optimized for mobile. I had added the following codes to increase width.
body {
background: #f5f5f5;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1080px;
}
#inner {
width: 1070px;
padding: 0 10px;
}
.content-sidebar #content-sidebar-wrap {
width: 1040px;
}
.content-sidebar #content {
width: 680px;
}
.sidebar {
width: 320px;
}
.full-width-content #content {
width: 1000px;
}
.footer-widgets-1, .footer-widgets-3 {
width: 330px;
}
.footer-widgets-2 {
width: 280px;
}
How do I make my site mobile optimized with the current increased width area? Please suggest. Thanks.
I suggest to use % instead of px, use media query for the responsive.
I'm working on a responsive picture gallery and I'm looking to modify some code I found. I've made a jsFiddle to show you what I'm working with.
jsFiddle
I want to be able to have a couple buttons below each image in the gallery. As you notice, if there is an image underneath an image the image above has its text cut off. I've thought about adding a margin bottom to .box as such:
.box {
float: left;
position: relative;
width: 14.28%;
padding-bottom: 14.28%;
margin-bottom: 30px;
}
jsFiddle with margin-bottom
I'm wondering if there is a better way to approach this. It seems if you re-size the window too small the text overlaps the images.
You just need to make the bottom padding on .box-container 30px:
.box_container {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
padding: 10px 10px 30px 10px;
margin-bottom: -35px;
margin-left: 5px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/jFwYU/3/
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #EEE;
font: 10px/13px'Lucida Sans', sans-serif;
}
.box {
float: left;
position: relative;
width: 14.28%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
.boxInner img {
width: 100%;
}
body.no-touch .boxInner:hover .titleBox, body.touch .boxInner.touchFocus .titleBox {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 480px) {
/* Smartphone view: 1 tile */
.box {
width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 650px) and (min-width : 481px) {
/* Tablet view: 2 tiles */
.box {
width: 50%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 1050px) and (min-width : 651px) {
/* Small desktop / ipad view: 3 tiles */
.box {
width: 33.3%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 1290px) and (min-width : 1051px) {
/* Medium desktop: 4 tiles */
.box {
width: 25%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 1590px) and (min-width : 1291px) {
/* Large desktop: 5 tiles */
.box {
width: 20%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 1920px) and (min-width : 1591px) {
/* Extra large desktop: 6 tiles */
.box {
width: 16.6%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
}
1) Removed position:absolute; for boxInner and box_container
2) Avoid using floats and position:absolute; together
3) Only horizontal dimensions should be defined in percentage, not the vertical ones(padding-bottom:33% is not good)
It seems that perhaps the simplest solution for this problem would be to modify the css for the box:
.box {
float: left;
position: relative;
width: 14.28%;
height: 14.28%;
margin-bottom: 40px;
}
height is a much more semantic way than padding-bottom to get what you are looking for, and to make sure the text displays properly (which probably shouldn't be absolutely positioned, but minor issue), add a margin-bottom.
You could also have the margin-bottom as a percent to have it be a percent of the size of the box, say, 20% or so, but px might be a good idea if you're not worried about teeny tiny boxes being an issue (whole gallery less than 50px)
Hope that helps!
I created something to help a college student get started. I adapted your images to the attached code. There are some features that the student needed that you did not ask for, but you can easily remove them.
I believe it meets the intent of preserving the space between images and allows text for each picture. The text is locked to its picture.
The code is not optimized and can certainly be improved, but it will hopefully put you a little closer to what you wanted,
