Flexbox layout with on column fluid and the other fixed width - html

Question

On THIS page I have a layout with rows of text-photo pairs. I need the photo to have a fixed width and the text to have fluid width. The text has to be vertically centered. I have used flexbox to achieve these goals.
As can be seen below, in the list item with the id of box2, in order to place the photo to the left, I had to insert it before the text block in the DOM.
The problem: on small, mobile resolutions, when the display goes to block instead of flex, the photos of the first and second row are one after the other, when instead, there should be a block of text between them.
How can I fix that?
h3 {
max-width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 65px 0;
font-size: 36px;
line-height: 1.2;
font-weight: 300;
font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif;
}
ul.boxes {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
ul.boxes li {
color: #3e3e3e;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
align-items: center;
}
ul.boxes #box1 {
background: #dcdcdc;
}
ul.boxes #box3 {
background: #6b6b6b;
color: #fff;
}
ul.boxes li .photo {
width: 402px;
max-width: 100%;
}
ul.boxes li .content {
padding: 0 65px;
width: 100%;
}
ul.boxes li h4 {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
margin-top: 0;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
ul.boxes li .content ul {
padding: 0;
}
ul.boxes li .content ul li {
padding-left: 20px;
background: transparent url('img/redbullet.png') no-repeat 5px 8px;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
ul.boxes,
ul.boxes li {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
}

Answer 1

Instead of display: block below (and including) 480px, you can wrap your flexbox and set order for the flex children like this:
ul.boxes,
ul.boxes li {
flex-wrap: wrap;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
ul.boxes li .photo {
order: 2;
}
ul.boxes li .content {
order: 1;
}
I guess now you can take it forward from here - see demo below:
h3 {
max-width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 65px 0;
font-size: 36px;
line-height: 1.2;
font-weight: 300;
font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif;
}
ul.boxes {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
ul.boxes li {
color: #3e3e3e;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
align-items: center;
}
ul.boxes #box1 {
background: #dcdcdc;
}
ul.boxes #box3 {
background: #6b6b6b;
color: #fff;
}
ul.boxes li .photo {
width: 402px;
max-width: 100%;
}
ul.boxes li .content {
padding: 0 65px;
width: 100%;
}
ul.boxes li h4 {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
margin-top: 0;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
ul.boxes li .content ul {
padding: 0;
}
ul.boxes li .content ul li {
padding-left: 20px;
background: transparent url('img/redbullet.png') no-repeat 5px 8px;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
ul.boxes,
ul.boxes li {
flex-wrap: wrap;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
ul.boxes li .photo {
order: 2;
}
ul.boxes li .content {
order: 1;
}
}
