So I have a queries.css that currently takes in
#media only screen and (max-width: 1140px){
.row,
.hero-img{
width: 100%;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 930px){
/* code */
}
But when the browser(chrome) is at width of 1023, it registers the code for the max-width:930px media query.
Does anyone know what the issue is here. I saw other posts related and they had said to use min-width and the meta tag, both of which I did and still causes the same problem .
Also when I try to write code into my 1140px max-width media query, the media query for 930px overrides that one.
Try this
#media only screen and (max-width: 100%){
.row,
.hero-img{
width: 100%;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 100%){
/* code */
}

i'm new to html and css and i've been having a few issues dealing with media queries.
Basically, i have a website that only "actually works" when its been visualizated in a 1920x1080 resolution, so i created a few media queries on my css to support other resolutions as well. I'm having a little bit of trouble on making a media querie to support the 1280x1024px resolution. When the browser is not on fullscreen, on windowed mod, none of my changes written in the css are applied. But when i go fullscreen, everything works just fine.
Also, i cant set 1280 width for this cuz it'll mess up my other media querie which was created for the 1280x768 resolution
Can anybody help me with this please?
Appreciate it.
This is how it looks on windowed mode, with none of my changes written in the CSS applied
This is how it looks on fullscreen, now, its actually doing what it's supposed to do
#media screen and (height:1024px) {
.white_round_background{
margin-left: 320px;
height: 170vh;
width: 160vw;
background-color: rgb(197, 183, 183);
}
.menunav {
left: 38%;
top: 4%;
}
.system_selection {
margin: 420px 0 0 0px;
height: 95px;
}
#logo_sliding_menu {
margin-top: 710px;
}
}
Hum... Just a guess at this point, but pay attention to that: the sequential order of css code matters.
You can have a lot of media-queries definitions, but they have to be in a specific order (from the highest to lowest). EG:
#media only screen and (max-heigth: 600px) {}
and only then
#media only screen and (max-width: 500px){}
ALSO, instead of just a specific height, maybe try to use the max-height property (which will be applied to devices having a resolution small than that height. Because aiming just one height of 1024px will not work on windows being 1023px height or less or 1025 or more...
.yourClass {
/* CSS applied to all devices above 1024px height */
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 1024px){
.yourClass {
/* CSS applied to all devices smaller than 1024px height */
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 955px){
.yourClass {
/* CSS applied to all devices smaller than 955px height */
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 500px){
.yourClass {
/* CSS applied to all devices smaller than 500px height */
}
}
/* And so on */
You can also play with min-height and max-height in the same query :
#media screen and (min-height: 400px) and (max-height: 900px)
{
.yourClass {
/* CSS applied to all devices
no less than 400px height and no more than 900px height */
}
}
I am attempting to utilize media queries to hide or unhide a div in HTML:
<div class="hide-medium hide-large">Test</div>
With the following CSS:
#media screen and (min-width: 994px){
.hide-large{
display:none
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 993px){
.hide-medium{
display:none
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 601px){
.hide-small{
display:none
}
}
The div hides properly when the browser is sized accordingly; however when the browser size hits 601px and lower the div still stays hidden. What am I doing incorrectly?
Media queries cascade. That is to say, at 601px your #media screen and (max-width: 601px) media query would correctly take affect, but the #media screen and (max-width: 993px) media query will also take affect, as 601px is smaller than 993px. Thus, the element has both media queries applied. And because your element still has the hide-medium class at a 'small' width, it will still be hidden.
If you don't want this to happen, I'd recommend explicitly setting a min-width on your middle media-query as well:
#media screen and (min-width: 994px) {
.hide-large {
display: none
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 993px) and (min-width: 602px) {
.hide-medium {
display: none
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 601px) {
.hide-small {
display: none
}
}
<div class="hide-medium hide-large">Test</div>
It's also important to note that media queries in the same stylesheet are applied top-to-bottom. If you have a 'lower down' media query that has a valid rule for the target element, it will overwrite any valid media queries which are 'higher up'. You can make use off only min-width (mobile-first) or max-width (desktop-first) queries in this regard (without mixing them). This is further explained here.
I am trying to use #media query to hide a span for tablet screen only like this:
#media screen and (max-width: 600px){
.tablet-screen {
display: none;
}
But it seems to be not working. Can someone correct me that i have to use max-width not min-width to hide span right ?
You have to use both. Under 600px it's not tablets, but smartphones.
You have to say it's min-width: 600px and max-width: 1280px. I will let you define your own breakpoints ;)
Demo : https://jsfiddle.net/Zetura/453gh680/
#media screen and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 1280px){
.hide-tablet {
display: none;
}
}
If you use min-width then increase it from top to bottom. Sequence matters!
#media screen and (min-width:220px) { ..... }
#media screen and (min-width:500px) { ..... }
#media screen and (min-width:700px) { ..... }
#media screen and (min-width:1000px) { ..... }
CSS reader stops reading the styles in the particular block when the current screen size is more than given in particular block.
And you don't need to use both at same time.
max-width is just opposite in sequence, biggest width first. But limits the biggest screen width supported. (Why? -> Just think like CSS reader.)
I'm trying to target a desktop with the screen size 1944 by 1080. I do this the normal way..
#media screen and (max-width: 1944px) and (max-height: 1080px) {
.about-section {
margin-top: 600px;
}
.container h3 {
position: relative;
top: -200px;
}
}
When I do this though, it affects my default resolution - 1440 by 900 -.
I'm confused does this mean I will have to rewrite code underneath this query for my default resolution?
So I want the header to be in a different position when viewed on a larger screen?
But I want the default header to not be affected by this?
I feel like I'm missing something, I know it cascades but surely the desktop query doesn't need to be at the top of the CSS file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
max-width means it will affect any browser with a screen lower than that value. If you want to target those dimensions and above only then use min-width instead.
You can use
#media screen and (max-width: 1944px) and (max-height: 1080px) and (min-width: 1441px) { }
To target your code to only > 1440px wide.
however you should probably just use
#media screen and (min-width: 1441px) { }
I have a bar that spans across the page (100% width) with a child container inside of it that spans 80% of the parent container's width.
I have the following CSS media query that is supposed to increase the child container's width from 80% to 100%:
#media screen and (max-width: 900px), screen and (max-device-width: 900px){
#imagebar .container{
width: 100%;
}
}
However, using the dimensions given to me by my chrome developer tools, the query is taking affect at a width of 990px. Not 900px. This is occurring with all my media queries; they are all activating 80-100px earlier than they should be. Anyone know what might be causing this?
This is formatted wrong.
#media screen and (max-width: 900px), screen and (max-device-width: 900px){
#imagebar{
.container{
width: 100%;
}
}
}
should be:
#media screen and (max-width: 900px), screen and (max-device-width: 900px){
#imagebar .container{
width: 100%; }
If you want to call on an element inside another element, dont open both elements, just specify which element in which parent you want to edit or change.
You can try like this it will work for you
/* Mobile Landscape Size to Tablet Portrait (devices and browsers) */
#media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px) {
your css here
}
