I am attempting to rebuild a site by going mobile-first but I am struggling with what I think is the responsiveness/resizing of the images or the other sections not resizing when browser width is increased, but the images grow quite large and overlap the section below.
I have tried adjusting the width and height of the images, anchor tags and the section below the images
If anybody has any ideas of what the cause would be, I would really appreciate the help.
At line 246 of your CSS, you've set the height of the lightbox section to 700px and this non-responsive height is causing problems at viewport widths of about 490 - 760px.
It isn't clear to me why you even need to see the height of this lightbox section, but if it's necessary, what about adding an extra breakpoint?
#media (max-width: 490px) {
.lightbox-section {
height: 700px;
}
}
#media (max-width: 760px) {
...
.lightbox-section {
padding: 63px 10px;
/* height: 700px; */ Either comment this out or adjust as needed
text-align: center;
}
...
}

I can see that you've set a pixel height for the index-services section as well but the image links are broken so I can't see if there's an issue in this section as well or not.

When I switch to smaller screens like tablets I get a padding to the right of the screen. When I go even smaller (smartphones) I get an even larger padded area to the right of the screen.
I am unsure if the Panic Button bar at the top may be interfering with the code of the page (.panic-button-container). I have already tried altering the CSS in the media queries. To reduce the size of the white area on tablets I changed the code below concerning the logo and navigation widths.
I changed:
#media (max-width: 1024px) and (min-width: 981px) {
.header-right-panel {
width: 40%;
float: right;
}
}
to:
#media (max-width: 1024px) and (min-width: 981px) {
.header-right-panel {
width: 80%;
float: right;
}
}
This helped a little with the layout but I still get a white bar on smaller screens. The smart phones are the worst. Any possible solutions would be appreciated.
Stop using floats. Use Flexbox. Too many clearfix divs in the way.
Obviously the footer is extending past the site content body as well as some other elements.
If you really want to narrow it down set this style:
* { outline: 1px solid red }
That way you see what container is over-extending and then set it's width to 100% instead of a fixed width.
EDIT 2:
Using my technique I have narrowed down the problems:
.footer-menu
remove width: 500px;
.lp-section-content row
remove all negative margin
.vc_column-inner vc_custom_1548439628787
remove all padding
Below i have written some css to ensure my "sections" use up the whole screen when navigated to, however when the browser window is made smaller or accessed on mobile the content is lost as it does not fit.
I have made a media query to counter the first bit of css but I'm not sure what to set it as to counter it.
#media screen and (max-width: 550px){
section.full {height: auto;}
section.contactfull {height: auto; margin-top:0%;}
}
section.full {height: 100vh;}
section.contactfull {
height: 70vh;
margin-top: 10%;
}
I think you will have to leave things flow down. No matter what device people use, you can restrict only one of the 2 dimensions, but not both of them.
Just adjust things horizontally and let them flow vertically.
If you want the section to take up the whole screen, you can use the following:
section {
display: fixed;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
I think the reason vh is failing you is because at a smaller resolution, the horizontal scroll bar shows up on your page, and vh doesn't take it into account.
The "rh" logo on my site is responsive vertically, ie fits perfectly to a tall thin window, but does not resize to a wide short window. Could anyone help me make the logo responsive to both width and height?
here is the website... (takes a bit to load up)
http://rhwebdesign.co.uk/
Here is my CSS:
img {
height: auto;
max-width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
To be very specific and address your questions about the logo, consider setting the max-height relative to the window's height.
You have:
img {
height: auto;
max-width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.hero-logo img {
max-width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
padding: 20px;
}
In order to scale the logo, add in to the latter block:
max-height: 100vh;
This sets the images maximum height to 100% of the viewport height, which appears to be what you desire here. Note that there is some text beneath it, which is not displayed, since it is text wrapped in an H5. These two lines are 68px tall (40px padding plus 28px for the text). So, you can adjust the above to:
max-height: calc(100vh - 68px);
It looks like in landscape mode (480x320), there is a script not calculating the size of margin correctly.
<div class="container hero-content" style="margin-top: -97.5px;">
have a look in main.js for this function:
heroContent.css({
"margin-top" : topContentMargin+"px"
});
Which is this:
topContentMargin = (heroHeight - contentHeight) / 2,
heroHeight = windowHeight,
contentHeight = heroContent.height(),
I haven't really looked into why it is calulating it incorrectly. My guess is that heroContent is too high for landscape mode because the image becomes 441px high with the media query max-width:100%. So it tries to add a negative margin to compensate.
My advice would be to remove the jQuery calculation of the hero content sizing and apply sizes using css and media queries only.
Edit:
You need to be more specific with your css. Learn some more about css specifity. You should include your largest media queries at the top, so the smaller ones will take precedence at the bottom. Makes things easier. Also IMHO, I wouldn't use queries for anything larger than iPad. ie. 1024px. Although you should always test on newer devices if possible.
You will need to specify the height of the video for each specific device size. I can't tell now, but maybe jquery was determining the section heights, so now the css is determining the video height.
So at the bottom of your style sheet, try this.
div#bgVideo.skrollable.skrollable-between video#video_background {
min-height:940px !important;
}
#media (max-width: 480px) {
.hero-logo img {
max-width:55%; /*looks nice at 480 */
padding:20px;
}
div#bgVideo.skrollable.skrollable-between video#video_background {
min-height:320px !important;
}
}
#media (max-width: 320px) {
div#bgVideo.skrollable.skrollable-between video#video_background {
min-height:480px !important;
}
}
But Richard, to be honest, you should be troubleshooting and testing the design yourself. How will you ever learn if you don't try. Remember, firebug is your best friend :)
any help here would be great.
I'm simply trying to place a header that stretches 100% of the screen. Inside this header is another div containing text. What i have looks fine at full screen, but when i resize down the text stacks on top of each other to accommodate the percentage.
If i set the container width to pixels instead of percentage, the header doesn't stretch the full length of the window unless i specify an exact pixel amount like 1463px - this doesn't seem right because while it may be appropriate for my laptop/screen dimensions i feel like it wouldn't work on a bigger screen with a maximized window.
I just want everything in my container to be able to be positioned according to the 100% of the browser width and height, but using percentages isn't allowing me to fix the elements so they stay put during resize. I've been working with percentages mostly and am having great difficulty keeping them fixed on resize as opposed to pixel dimensions, basically because using percentages is ensuring that my content is taking up 100% of the browser window, whereas I can't be sure with this when using pixels.
html, body {
height: 100 % ;
width: 100 % ;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.container {
width: 100 % ;
height: 100 % ;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#
topbar {
height: 25px;
background - color: #000000;
width: 100%;
}
# topbartext {
font - family: times;
color: #ffffff;
font - size: 11px;
text - align: center;
padding: 5px;
}
The text is what is moving during resize - when I make the window smaller the text just stacks on top of eachother in order to still fit the screen. I don't want it to do this - i just want it to be fixed and not resize.
HTML :
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="header">
<div id="topbar">
<div id="topbartext">$10 SHIPPING TO THE USA FOR ALL ORDERS OVER $150*++ FREE SHIPPING AND RETURNS ON AUSTRALIAN ORDERS OVER $50* ++ *FULL CONDITIONS
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Percentages is best for this.
If you want the text to remain in one line you can add the following to your html and css:
html...
<div id="topbartext" class="topbartext">
css...
.topbartext {
white-space: nowrap;
}
Note that:
In css it is better practice to use a class (.topbartext) rather than the id (#topbartext).
Using this method will mean that if you make your page narrower than the text you will have a horizontal scrollbar added (not ideal). You are probably better off allowing the text to wrap in which case you will need to remove the height: 25px;.
As suggested above you could use css media queries. That will take some googling to learn.
If I'm understanding you correctly you can also use a min-width: 820px on the body. This will ensure your body never gets below a certain width it will provide a horizontal scrollbar if it gets smaller than that.
html,body {
min-width: 820px;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
Demo Fiddle

You can use media queries to alter the content styles based on parameters like screen size.
Here's a demo using your example that shrinks the text and allows the #topbar to expand when the screen is smaller than 800px wide (when the text starts to wrap).
For instance:
/* Normal styles that apply all the time*/
p {
font-size:1em;
}
/* Media query that applies if the display media is a screen
and the condition between the brackets is met */
#media screen and (max-width:600px) {
p {
font-size:0.6em;
}
}
You are trying to fit in a lot of text though, you may be better off allowing the surrounding div to expand by removing the fixed height:
#topbar { height:25px; };
If you want to fit all your content on a small screen, this is probably the way to go.
Have you tried using JavaScript? I am not sure what you want since you are setting the top bar container to have fixed height which means the text will be out of the container if you do not resize the height. Here is some script to force the width (or height) to full window size (I had trouble with percentage also):
function resizeTopBar() {
var width = window.innerWidth;
var height = window.innerHeight;
var target = document.getElementById("topbar");
target.style.width = width + "px";
}
window.onresize = function() {
resizeTopBar();
}
The script will not change the way it works (the text will stack on each other) since you never change the height. If you want the height to wrap, remove height: 25px; from topbar.
Screenshot:
You can try this:-
#topbartext {font-size: 1em;}
#media only screen and (min-width: 320px) and (max-width: 479px){
#topbartext{ font-size:25%;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){
#topbartext{font-size:50%;}
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 959px){
#topbartext{ font-size:50%;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 960px){
#topbartext{ font-size:70%;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1280px){
#topbartext{ font-size:100%;}
}
img {
max-width: 100% !important; /* Set a maxium relative to the parent */
width: auto\9 !important; /* IE7-8 need help adjusting responsive images */
height: auto; /* Scale the height according to the width, otherwise you get stretching */
vertical-align: middle;
border: 0;
display: block;
-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;
}
The above CSS is taken from Twitter Bootstrap which allows for responsive images. The only problem is this has no effect in Firefox and IE.
In the following case:
<div class="row-fluid">
<div id="logo" class="span4">
<img src="<?= get_template_directory_uri() ?>/assets/images/logo.png" />
</div>
</div>
http://dev.netcoding.net/lowsglass/about-us/ - Here is a page showing the problem.
In Firefox or IE, shrink the page to below 432px and you will see that the images do not follow max-width anymore (while above 764px they do).
How can I fix this – without using image containers – to make responsive images work in Firefox and IE?
I've struggled a lot with Firefox / IE and max-width, specifically when on elements of display: inline-block. I use the CSS only solution below to add my fixes.
// Styles for Firefox
#-moz-document url-prefix() {
#logo img {
width: 100%;
}
}
// Styles for IE10
#media screen and (-ms-high-contrast: active), (-ms-high-contrast: none) {
#logo img {
width: 100%;
}
}
Firefox fails to scale images with max-width/height if width/height is not defined. So there are two ways.
1. Set width and max-width:
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
2. Use max-width and max-height in vw and vh:
max-width: 90vw;
What means the image will have max 90% of visible width. Have fun!
Instead of width:auto, try width:100%.
Best,

Actually, the problem isn't the img tag being affected, but the span* containers. When Bootstrap Responsive gets to a certain point, it turns off floating, and sets width to 100%. When that container pops back to 100%, the child within (your img tag) does exactly what you told it to do, which is expand to max-width of 100%.
Look at this from responsive.css... above the declaration in the stylesheet, you'll see this:
/* Landscape phone to portrait tablet */
#media (max-width: 767px) {
[class*="span"], .uneditable-input[class*="span"], .row-fluid [class*="span"] {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
display: block;
float: none;
margin-left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
That is what is causing the img to "resize" ... its container no longer shrinks past a certain point, due to the way Bootstrap's responsive styles are set up.
To block this, you could either modify the Bootstrap stylesheet (in which case you will have to redo the change anytime you want to update your Bootstrap files), or you can, in your own stylesheet, do something like the following:
/* Landscape phone to portrait tablet */
#media (max-width: 767px) {
[class*="span"], .uneditable-input[class*="span"], .row-fluid [class*="span"] {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
display: inline-block;
float: left;
}
That will put the floating back, however, you're still left with width as an issue, as the default Bootstrap style at that screen-width is trying to set width to 100%. You could try setting width:auto and then hopefully the widths for each specific span-step (.span1, .span2, etc.) will be allowed to take over, but you'll really have to test it out to see what is going to work best for your situation.
Bumped in similar problem after implementing large amount of site design using Bootstrap framework and only Chrome for debug... Biiig mistake © :) It appeared, that cool fluid Bootstrap styles didn't work for images in IE and Mozilla at all. All images were not resized and had original width, sometimes much wider than I've expected to see...
I had a lot of similar places with two columns of divs - span6 for left column and span6 for right one (those are styles for fluid Bootstrap grid). Sometimes in those columns images were placed between text lines, and as you see, images didn't resize well in IE\Mozilla and all of the cool design became not good at all :(
After googling and trying some advices from github I've decided to use jQuery :) I added class to column container (imageContainer for fluid span12 row), and added classes 50perc for images which I needed to resize properly (size of each image should be 50% of container's size). And here's the code:
$(function(){
var cont = $('.imageContainer');
$('.50perc').each(function(i, el){
$(el).width(cont.width() / 2);
});
p.s. Actually it will be much effective to use this function in window.resize event handler :)
Ran into the same problem and still haven't found a fix or CSS only hack, except for forcing width: 100% at small browser sizes, when the natural width of the image will usually be larger than the width of the page (here I've assumed I don't have any images narrower than 480px):
img
{
width: auto;
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 480px), only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (orientation: portrait)
{
#-moz-document url-prefix() {
/* Firefox doesn't respect max-width in certain situations */
img
{
width: 100%;
}
}
But that will still force images that have naturally smaller widths to get blown up, which is bad. So at that point, if Javascript is feasible or already in use, I would add this to hit every image:
PSEUDO CODE:
$('img').css('max-width', this.actualFullSizeWidth + 'px');
...which should override the CSS max-width rules, and guarantee the image doesn't get larger than it's actual width.
Responsive images for Firefox, IE, Chrome. Simple solution that works in Firefox
<div class="article"><img></div>
.article {background: transparent 0% 0% / 100% auto;}
.article img {max-width: 100%;}
