How to make simple HTML page more responsive? - html

So I've been tinkering with a REALLY simple web page (and this is why this is painful for me - it's a simple page) and I've been trying to make it responsive. I sort of had it looking right on a mobile screen, but the more I tweaked my code, the worse it got on other sizes.
So..I really hope that I'm not asking TOO much - but again the page is super simple, so this might be simple to answer..so I'll just jump in and ask a few questions :/
I want the page's big call to action image to disappear on a phone screen, and I'm trying to get the logo to center and the phone number to center right under it. I'm trying to get the bullet points images to center above the two lines of text..and the contact form to just fall in right below it (contact form was working just fine it seemed, so no big question there)
I'll link a live copy of the page as a reference - and a link to a page I've been mimicking in case it helps.
http://lab.blacksunresearch.com/ is my page
http://landing.trugreen.com/growth29 is the page im mimicking (sort of)
Again, I hope it doesnt sound like a TON of stuff, but the page is so simple, I'm probably only missing a few lines of code in my media queries
Thanks!
Edit: Moose, emoticon removed - also, I did ask a question - "How do I make this page more responsive?"

Open their CSS and look at parts with media-queries. There is what you want.
There are only 2 css which you should look through:
themeform.css
themeresponsive.css

You have to include some css to make it responsive ( Custom css , Jquery ,Jquery Mobile , Bootstrap etc) . Or you can simply put some Media Queries where you want your webpage to Act differently, ie responsive .

Full-width image with links

I need a full-width image with labeled sections to link to individual pages. Any suggestions how to make this happen? The web site is built on WordPress, so if a plug-in will accomplish this that will work too. Method needs to be responsive and not break apart as viewport is reduced.
For example, Section 1 needs to link to the Section 1 page, etc.
See image at
Well, if you want to have something like that and responsive, you should cut the image in as many pieces as items you need, create an element for each piece and set the image as background. There rest is mediaqueries, maybe you can do it with bootstrap.
Also, try to go to the design community, as this is more related to design than anything else, and I don't think a Wordpress plugin exists for this.

Taking pictures off a line in HTML5

I'm working on an very, very, very basic website, so basic it's pure HTML. I could easily add CSS, but for simplicities sake I'm trying to just do it in HTML. I have a banner I want to put at the top of the page, then I want it to drop a line and have the rest of the pictures there. I can get the pictures to easily popup in rows and have them resized, but some pictures still go onto the line which the banner is on. I don't want that. Would I need to somehow use a break? Again, trying to stay away from using CSS because I feel as though putting 5 lines of it on a website is a bit silly. However it's what you strongly suggest, I'm fine with doing it.

CSS layout changes with resolution

I'm designing a chat page for a radio station and i am working on a 1360X768 Res' on a 32Inch screen.
When i ask friends to check the page layout it gets messy for them or elements get smaller in screen and the page wont stay consistent.
If its possible i would like to know if there is a fixed settings i need to insert to "body" in CSS so things like that wont happen, and when i move an element in my screen it will stay like that with other resolutions/screens.
The web page in question
Warning: There is music on Auto play in the page.
Also, if its ok to ask 2 different things but related.
I want to add the scrolling stats on the bottom to the bottom player..right where it says "now playing".
But everything i try wont make it go on top of it..z-index wont help.
Any thoughts?
The first mistake you're making is you're designing on a particular
resolution.
The second mistake you're making is that the resolution
you're designing on is way above the most commonly used 1024x768.
Take a look at MediaQueries. They allow you to build a fluid website that changes drastically at given resolutions.

Responsive CSS works on regular browsers, not on mobile... why?

I am trying to put together a simple portfolio site, and have implemented a basic responsive design into the CSS as well (at the very bottom of it), and it behaves just fine - shrinks the 5 columns down to a single column and hides a few elements when I resize the computer browser. But on iPhone/Android browser it doesn't make any difference.
Here is the page in question -> Sample Page
And I can't figure out what the issue is... as in, this should be fairly simple to do, but apparently it's not, and now I'm losing sleep over it... so might as well ask here.
Have you [also] consider the use of viewport meta-tag? Just check This.
I tried loading the site but it seems like your custom js file is not found(404 error).

prevention of scroll reset when linking?

First time overflowing the stack.
I'm making a website with several html pages that are identical except for the fact that they contain different images that are more or less identical in size - and thats how they are named, by the jpg that they feature.
The pictures look great with the website, but I have a 300 pixel header that pushes them downward > forcing you to scroll down to see the full image. This is built into the shared CSS for all these gallery pages.
I have simple text links below the images that are hard coded to point to the next image in the gallery. (I have a list of the 20 images im displaying). When someone clicks the image, it goes to that page and resets the scroll to the top, which makes the header push the image area down.
Can anyone tell me how to prevent the scroll reset behavior of the new link?
Without using something like jQuery, you could link the pages such that you have an anchor tag like <a name="gallery"></a> above the images on each page and when giving the link to the various pages, append a #gallery to the url such as Next Image. This is duplicated on each page however, and will not produce a robust webpage. You'll want to change things in the future and this will cause problems and further work, so I would consider a dynamic alternative.
Note this won't look as seamless as with jQuery and using AJAX to load in the images when needed. Or better yet, as most JS galleries work, load the images into the page invisible at first and then with JS have them show up on the link click. The benefit of this would be that you could generate the links in JS using the provided images. If the images are large enough that they may cause considerable lag on page load, consider making placeholder images of some sort. In any case, take a look at lightbox 2.
Also, I didn't get the feeling you were using any server side scripting to create this gallery. If the js solution doesn't suit you or you find the added benefit of generating part of the website automatically based on the content need at the time, take a look at using something like PHP, Python, Ruby, etc. If it's just a simple website you're after, a great solution might be Wordpress.
You could have one page and just replace the images?

Now of course you change the function to work on a "previous/next" button system, assuming you have a photo gallery of some sort.
Please post more details.
You want your link to look something like this:
<a href="http://www.w3schools.com/html_links.htm#tips">
Visit the Useful Tips Section</a>
and you want to give your image an id="tips" in this case.
Check out this fiddle to see an example. The only difference is that your href will have the rest of the url in there like the code posted above.
