Issue with Input element shrinking too much as browser resizes - html

I have a contact form (a bunch of input/span elements) nested in a Boostrap col. As the browser shrinks, the input fields shrink to an undesirable size.
I have tried adding various col-breakpoints, which sort-of works, but it looks funky and still shrinks too much until it hits the breakpoint. I have also looked for a way to specify a min-width of sorts, but haven't had luck with that either.

If you change col-4 to col-lg-4 or col-md-4 you will have the desired layout.
The issue is that with col-4 you are essentially saying "stay this width on all devices". When col-lg-4 or col-md-4 are responsive and set divs to be 100% on large/medium devices and down.

flex boostrap 4 grid overlapping row height and using collapse class

Let's say I have this kind of grid columns bootstrap 4 (image on the left) and then I collapse the card 1 using boostrap collapse, and I expected the grid 3 to overlapping the height of row (and the result will be on the right image)
I have tried it using align-item-start and align-self-start, turns out it just like the row class bootstrap..
my investigation is that grid 1 and 2 covered by row class that has certain height (if height 1 < 2 then height 2 will be the row height and vice versa..
is this even possible using bootstrap 4?

Silly me, turns out you don't need to user .row class..
simply using .float-left and .float-right on each div

Remove bottom gap in bootstrap column

My concern is my middle col-md-4, there is an annoying margin in the bottom. I tried disabling some CSS in the inspect element but it still stays. How can I center my search bar?
Here is my bootstrap:
<div class="container mb-3 mt-3">
<div class="row align-self-center">
<div class="col-md-4">
<img src="img/logo_header.png" class="img-fluid" width="200">
</div>
<div class="col-md-4">
<form action="cards/search.php" method="POST">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="text-search" id="searchBox" class="form-control search-bar" aria-label="Default" aria-describedby="inputGroup-sizing-default" placeholder="Search Coupons" required>
<div class="input-group-prepend">
<button type="submit" name="submit-search" class="input-group-text bg-blue"> <i class="fas fa-search"></i> </button>
</div>
</div>
<div id="response" class="scrollbar-design search-content"></div>
</form>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4">
<img src="img/logo_header.png" class="img-fluid" width="200">
</div>
</div>
</div>
UPDATE:
padding 0px does not seem to work
just add my-auto since it's bootstrap
<div class="col-md-4 mx-auto text-center my-auto">
</div>

form <input> not spanning 100% width of form

When adding form-group with an input, the input field will not go to 100% width of the form group which is already the width of the card.
I've tried adding styles for width directly to the parent element and to the input element itself.
<div class="container-fluid d-flex justify-content-center">
<div class="card d-flex justify-content-center" style="background-color:dodgerblue; height:60vh; width:40vw; border-radius:20px">
<div class="card-body ml-4 mt-3 text-center">
<div class="row ml-4">
<div class="form-group mr-5" style="display: inline-block; width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;">
<label for="cardNumber">Card number</label>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="cardNumber" placeholder="Your card number" class="form-control" required>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<a class="btn btn-primary text-center mt-3" href="">Continue</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You can see what I mean in this fiddle window, the input will not span 100% width of the card.
You have to add bootstrap cdn/url. Check this jsfiddle
<div class="container-fluid d-flex justify-content-center">
<div class="card d-flex justify-content-center" style="background-color:dodgerblue; height:60vh; width:40vw; border-radius:20px">
<div class="card-body ml-4 mt-3 text-center">
<div class="row ml-4" >
<div class="form-group mr-5" style="display: inline-block; width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;">
<label for="cardNumber">Card number</label>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="cardNumber" placeholder="Your card number" class="form-control" required>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Figured this out and it was an extremely basic thing that i missed.
I removed the "max-width" of the inputs that comes in the site.css file by default.
thanks for the response!

Bootstrap input-group-prepend/addon width adjustment

I'm having issues making prepend add-ons the same width. I'm using Font Awesome icons and the prepend is sized to each specific icon. I found another thread from about a year ago describing my exact problem, but there wasn't an answer.
Bootstrap4 make all input-group-addons same width
Here's a screenshot of my issue:
I tried using various CSS tweaks with no luck, including the one provided in that aforementioned thread.

I tried your same code snippet, with just some css tweaks it works for me.
I just added the following css,
Please use this css, this will solve your prepend/addon width issue.
.input-group-text {
width: 40px;
}
.input-group-text span {
margin: 0 auto;
}
Here is also the url to the snippet as well,
bootstrap-input-group-prepend-addon-width-issue
I think the easiest answer with this is css grid.
.wrapper
{
display:grid;
grid-template-rows: repeat(3,1fr) 2fr;
grid-template-columns: 15% 85%;
grid-row-gap:1rem
}
Then assign icons to the first column and inputs to the second one.
Hope this answered your problem.

Why aren't my col-lg- shown full width?

After getting some help with alignment of my controls, I'm now struggling to fully understand, exploit and adopt that solution.
The current state of affairs can be played with here and the code is below:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8">
<div class="form-inline col-lg-4">
<div class="form-group">
<div class="input-group">

<input id="oldpswd" name="oldpswd" placeholder="Altes Passwort" type="password" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<span id="oldpswd_errmsg" class="bg-danger col-lg-4">xxxx</span>

<input id="oldpswd" name="newpswd" placeholder="Neues Passwort" type="password" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<span id="newpswd_errmsg" class="bg-danger col-lg-4">xxxx</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8">
<div class="form-inline col-lg-4">
<div class="form-group">
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-addon"><span class="fa fa-key fa-fw"></span></div>
<input id="reppswd" name="reppswd" placeholder="Passwort wiederholen" type="password" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<span id="reppswd_errmsg" class="bg-danger col-lg-4">xxxx</span>
</div>
</div>
Question: within the row there is a col-lg-8 that contains two col-lg-4 divs. As I understood the doc, the input-controls are supposed to take up the entire width of their containers, yet the form-group inside the col-lg-4 is significantly smaller than its container.
How can this layout be fixed so that the divs with designated col-lg- classes use the available space?
Updated
Addedd css to expand the form controls to expand with divs.
Is this what you want? http://www.bootply.com/y2K2OY8H1H
You had a row, with a column of 8, with two columns of 4 inside that. So the col-8 fills 8 of the 12 main columns. Then the 2 col-4 inside of that only fill 8 of the 12 inside that col-8. So each time you nest the col's you create nested columns. It is a little confusing, but makes sense.
NEW CSS:
.form-group {
width:100%;
}
.input-group {
width:100%;
}
