Media Query below 768px not working - html

I am writing a media query for a web-page and managed to write media queries for 768 and below. But it doesn't work properly. I want to capture the portrait views of most of the mobiles( iphone4, iphone5,iphone3,asus galaxy 7,samsung galaxy sII, samsung galaxy s3 ) which is 320px. The webpage I created was working for 768px and above but not working for media query below 768px
#media (min-width:481px) and (max-width:768px) {
.navbar-brand{
margin-left: 80px;
}}
#media (min-width: 768px){
.navbar-brand{
margin-left: 100px;
}
#media (min-width: 991px){
.navbar-brand{
margin-left: 150px;
}}
Here in this example margin left property working very well on min-width: 768px and min-width:991px but not working on #media (min-width:481px) and (max-width:768px).

You are missing a curly bracket to close of your media query for min-width: 768px. Here's the final code with formatting to more easily see it.
#media (min-width:481px) and (max-width:768px) {
.navbar-brand {
margin-left: 80px;
}
}
#media (min-width: 768px) {
.navbar-brand {
margin-left: 100px;
}
}
#media (min-width: 991px) {
.navbar-brand{
margin-left: 150px;
}
}
For capturing screensizes that is 320px with a specific margin you can either remove (min-width:481px) and from your first media query if the same styling should apply or add a media query specific for that case:
#media (max-width: 320px) {
.classname {
enter some code here
}
}

Please take a look and confirm below media queries with updated code.
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.navbar-brand {
margin-left: 100px;
}
}
#media only screen (min-width: 481px) and (max-width:767px) {
.navbar-brand {
margin-left: 80px;
}
}

media queries in css not working properly

I am using this code in my web page and I tried different settings for min-width but it take values only from the media query having least width.
#media only screen and (min-width: 900px) {
li{
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
}
li.one{
padding-left: 13%;
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 800px) {
li {
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;}
li.two{
padding-left: 9%;
}
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 600px),screen and (max-width: 601px) {
li {
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
}
li.three{
padding-left: 7%;
}
}
Don't know what is stopping other queries to work properly.
Please add this code in your HTML page
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
1.) Your third query should be written like this:
#media only screen and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 601px) {...
(a comma would mean two independent selectors)
2.) You made your li elements inline elements. But an inline element can't have any padding - all these padding values don't affect anything. So change the display settings to inline-block for these.
The order of query sizes should be changed. In CSS, the last valid query wins, so the query falls though to the smallest. The largest should come last.
#media (min-width: 768px) {} works for me. also add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> to head tag
#media screen and (min-width: 320px) {
//your css class
}
#media screen and (min-width: 321px) and (max-width:480px){
//your css class
}
#media screen and (min-width: 481px) and (max-width:720px) {
//your css class
}
#media screen and(min-width: 721px) and (max-width:1080px) {
//your css class
}
#media screen and(min-width: 1080px) and (max-width: 1280px){
//your css class
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1281px) and (max-width: 1920px){
//your css class
}
Try using your queries like this, this way worked for me
You have left one curly bracket inside 900 media query. Copy this code and replace media query.
#media only screen and (min-width: 900px) {
li {
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
}
li.one{
padding-left: 13%;
}
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 800px) {
li {
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
}
li.two{
padding-left: 9%;
}
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 601px) {
li {
display: inline;
padding-left : 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
}
li.three{
padding-left: 7%;
}
}
add this to in your head tag and close proper media query braces you didnt close do check properly.

The screen size overwrites the other ones :S

Ive been trying to make a change of my category images depending on screen size. But right now only the first screen width size are being used. It seems as though the other ones are being overridden by the first row of code (max-width: 769px). (on this site: http://origami.directory/)
What can I do so it changes 3 times as it should do?
.category-list-item {
float: left;
padding: 1em;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 769px) {
.category-list-item { width: 20%; }
};
#media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
.category-list-item { width: 25%; }
};
#media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.category-list-item { width: 33.33%; }
};
If someone could help me fix this I would be super grateful!

Remove the extra semi-colon ; from the end of your queries.
Your queries should be like this:
#media screen and (max-width: 769px) {
.category-list-item { width: 20%; }
}
#media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
.category-list-item { width: 25%; }
}
#media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.category-list-item { width: 33.33%; }
}
Your queries are conflicting with each other making the second query obsolete. Specify a range for each like this:
#media (max-width: 480px) {
.category-list-item{width: 33.33%;}
}
#media (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 768px) {
.category-list-item { width: 25%; }
}
#media (min-width: 769px) {
.category-list-item { width: 20%; }
}
I'm not very sure with the min-width:769px part so just let me know what exactly are you trying to do and I'll fix that accordingly. The above is just to show you how queries work basically.

Why is my media query not working after first breakpoint?

I am trying to make a simple webpage responsive but somehow, after the first breaking point, nothing happens. I put the whole code in this fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/Cilvako/umwhLdqx/
Bellow are the breakpoints I am trying to use but still haven't got to the third since I couldn't make the second work.
/Media Query/
#media screen and (min-device-width : 1px) and (max-device-width : 480px) {
}
#media screen and (min-width : 481px) and (max-width : 768px) {
}
#media screen and (min-width : 769px) and (max-width : 1200px) {
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 1200px) {
}
Don't mix device-width with the normal width if you can. Simply use min-width and max-width if you're targeting only browser window size.
Read this if you're confused CSS media queries min-width and min-device-width conflicting?
You are supposed to write CSS in the media queries and also close and open them properly using '{' and '}' which you are not on the fiddle.
A media query looks something like
#media screen and (min-width : 769px) and (max-width : 1199px) {
h1 { color: blue; }
}
#media screen and (min-width : 1200px) and (max-width : 1800px) {
h1 { color: green; }
}
So between 769px and 1199px, h1s would be blue, and between 1200px and 1800px they would be green. I'm not seeing that in your JSFiddle - the brackets are not closed properly, and I can't see what you're trying to do with the rules.
You almost never ever ever need a max-width
fiddle
body {
background: gray;
}
#media screen and (min-width: 500px) {
body {
background: red;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 500px) {
body {
background: red;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 800px) {
body {
background: lightblue;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
body {
background: orange;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1300px) {
body {
background: pink;
}
}

styles over riding styles when using #media in css

So I am having a noob issue, one that is annoying me greatly. So I have the following type of style sheet:
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
background: #714f46;
padding: 10px;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
font-family: "custom-script";
position: relative;
height: 52px;
font-size: 34px;
padding-top: 12px;
}
#media (min-width: 960px) {
}
#media (min-width: 768px) {
}
#media (min-width: 640px) {
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
width: 453px;
}
}
#media (min-width: 480px) {
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
width: 353px;
}
}
Now the issue is that anything over 641px will use the 640px rule. Even if the screen is 1920x1200. I think its because I don't have a width defined for the original element? if thats case, I slap a width on the original element of 453px:
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
...
width: 453px;
}
But the problem is, its almost like the #media rule has precedence, because in the crhome inspector when the width is 1366px, it still uses the 640px rule instead of the width I just defined. Now I was thinking of, instead of doing: (min-width: xyzpx) I would use max-width but that seems to take a way the smooth scaling down affect that the client wants, they don't want it jumping between media sizes.
Should my element have a max-width of 453px to override the #media rule?
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
...
max-width: 453px; /** or a min-width: 453px **/
}
Essentially my questions are:
Why is my #media rule overriding any other rule on the page. In this case why is it using the width in the 640 rule to apply to anything above when the original definition of the element in question does not specific a width?
And
Why is when I specify a width for that original definition of the element, that the #media rule, which defined a new width at 640px overrides it, especially when the windows width is say 1366px?
From what I understand your issue is that you want to apply the Non-Mobile First Method, and by using that you have to use the max-width instead of min-width
like this:
/*========== Non-Mobile First Method ==========*/
#media only screen and (max-width : 960px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 768px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 640px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 480px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width : 320px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
or if you want to use the Mobile First Method then you should use min-width but this way:
/*========== Mobile First Method ==========*/
#media only screen and (min-width : 320px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 480px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 640px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 768px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (min-width : 960px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
Below is a snippet from what I understand it is what you are looking for:
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
background: #714f46;
padding: 10px;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
font-family: "custom-script,arial";
position: relative;
height: 52px;
font-size: 34px;
padding-top: 12px;
}
/*========== Non-Mobile First Method ==========*/
#media only screen and (max-width: 960px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 640px) {
#content .post-content .row .col-md-6 .box-top {
width: 453px;
}
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 320px) {
/*your CSS Rules*/
}
<div id="content">
<div class="post-content">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="box-top">Something
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Try reversing order of your media queries. Smallest min-width first.
Say your window width is 700px. Then (min-width: 960px) and (min-width: 768px) does not match and are skipped but both (min-width: 640px) and (min-width: 480px) do match styles inside these blocks are applied in order they appear in CSS file. And later styles override previous styles, e.g.:
p { color: green; }
p { color: red; }
Your p color would be red.

/* If window size >= 200px */
#media (min-width: 200px) {
p { color: red }
}
/* If window size >= 300px */
#media (min-width: 300px) {
p { color: orange }
}
/* If window size >= 400px */
#media (min-width: 400px) {

Responsive website and media queries

I am using media queries as below
#media (min-width:100px) and (max-width:639px)
{
}
#media (min-width:640px) and (max-width:960px)
{
.box {background-color:red;}
}
#media (width:768px)
{
.box {background-color:green; }
}
#media (min-width:961px)
{
}
I want to specifically target some div element for screen 768 pixel so that it appears exactly as i want for example in general i want to overwrite css defined in #media (min-width:640px) and (max-width:960px) by css which is targeted for screen 768 #media (min-width:768px)
At present it is still showing me box as red while it should be red, I am not sure how css is complied i defined it after the second media query so that it will over right it.
How can i target certain element using media queries for specific devices
example :http://jsfiddle.net/X43Et/
Update:
I am not sure what exactly was wrong with it put i copy pasted #media (width:768px) { part from fiddle & it works in my actual page.
May be some invisible typo mistake..
This is just an example of media queries You would want to have your normal css before the media queries
#gallery-1 img {
width:375px;
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1366px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:375px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1440px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:428px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1600px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:434px;}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1920px) {
#gallery-1 img {width:540px;}
}
And when you're using media queries, you want to specify that you want the screen size so you use screen after #media. I hope this is what you were looking for and will help you!
Here is a small example script I made
<style>
#box {
width: 500px;
height: 200px;
background: yellow;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
#media screen and (max-width:1000px) {
#box { background: red; }
}
#media screen and (min-width:1000px) and (max-width:1200px) {
#box { background: green; }
}
#media screen and (min-width:1200px) and (max-width:1400px) {
#box { background: blue; }
}
</style>
<div id="box">
</div>
On JSFiddle the screen size isn't the whole screen, it's the small box the preview is in so you would need to make the sizes smaller to see the effect, here is a DEMO resize your screen browser to see the preview.
