How to write media queries for 480*800 and 480*856 devices? - html

I am new to responsive design and i didn't get it properly till now. My question is that i need to write two media queries for 480*800 and 480*856 device for both landscape and portrait mode. Please explain it to me how it works ?
I have tried this query and it seems working for both the devices in landscape mode
#media only screen and (min-width:480px) and (max-width:854px) and (orientation:landscape)

#media all and (max-width: 480px) and (min-width: 480px) and (min-height:800px) and (max-height:856px)
{
body {
background-color:lime;
}
}
This would target both devices with the same css code.
Alternatively you could split it into two media queries and target each platform.
When I was new to responsive design I found this article very useful: http://css-tricks.com/css-media-queries/

You can try the following css styles:
media screen (max-width: 480px) and (max-height:856px) {
//code
}
media screen (max-width: 480px) and (max-height:800px) {
//code
}
media screen and (max-width: 856px) {
//code
}
media screen and (max-width: 800px){
//code
}

How to handle media queries on landscape view

Hello friends i have a website in which there are two headers , one header appears on mob view and other one appears on desktop view .I have used #media to hide and show the headers ,it works fine until i tilt my mobile. when i tilt my mobile the hidden header pops out here's a piece of code i used.
#media only screen and (max-width:767px) {
.mobcat{
display: none;
}
You could simple add (orientation: landscape) to your query like this
#media only screen and (max-width:767px) and (orientation: landscape)
{
.mobcat{
display: none;
}
}
or
#media (max-width:767px) and (orientation: landscape) {
.mobcat{
display: none;
}
}

How to detect landscape mode and hide html content using css, queries or js

In my responsive website I want to control the way the website is viewed in mobile devices, and forbid viewing from landscape mode.
I searched through the stackoverflow site and found the option of putting a warning message.
I tried the css code below but it didn't work. Do you have any suggestions?
#media screen and (max-width: 980px) and (orientation:portrait){
#warning-message {
display:none;
}
}
#media screen and (max-width: 980px) and (orientation:landscape){
.content {
display:none;
}
.mobile {
display:none;
}
#warning-message {
display:block;
}
}
The ‘orientation’ media feature is ‘portrait’ when the value of the ‘height’ media feature is greater than or equal to the value of the ‘width’ media feature. Otherwise ‘orientation’ is ‘landscape’.
#media all and (orientation:portrait) { … }
#media all and (orientation:landscape) { … }

How to fix blogger template for mobile devices

I have a blog http://bdbloggerhub.com . It's fine in pc but when i visit it with mobile or tab it shows a blank pic above the post pic. How to remove it?
try adding .img-thumbnail{display:none;} at the end of your styles.
or for particular screen size add the following styles.
#media only screen and (max-width: 479px)
.img-thumbnail {
display none;
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 767px) and (min-width: 480px)
.img-thumbnail {
display:none;
}
you can also use the {width:0; height:0} properties in place of {display:none}

change you #media style as this // change width as per your requirements
#media only screen (max-width: 500px) {
// or as per your needs, as I try to explain below
}
Now I try to explain maybe..:)
#media (max-width:500px)
for a window with a max-width of 500px that you want to apply these styles. At that size you would be talking about anything smaller than a desktop screen in most cases.
#media screen and (max-width:500px)
for a device with a screen and a window with max-width of 500px apply the style. This is almost identical to the above except you are specifying screen as opposed to the other media types the most common other one being print.
#media only screen and (max-width:500px)
Here is a quote straight from W3C to explain this one.
The keyword ‘only’ can also be used to hide style sheets from older user agents. User agents must process media queries starting with ‘only’ as if the ‘only’ keyword was not present.
As there is no such media type as "only", the style sheet should be ignored by older browsers.
I try to put some more information here, gathered from web.
If
That's what media queries are: logical if statements. "If" these things are true about the browser, use the CSS inside.
And
The keyword and.
#media (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 800px) {
html { background: red; }
}
Or
Comma separate.
#media (max-width: 600px), (min-width: 800px) {
html { background: red; }
}
Technically these are treated like to separate media queries, but that is effectively and or.
Not
Reverse the logic with the keyword not.
#media not all and (max-width: 600px) {
html { background: red; }
}
Just doing not (max-width: 600px) doesn't seem to work for me, hence the slightly funky syntax above. Perhaps someone can explain that to me. Note that not only works for the current media query, so if you comma separate, it only affects the media query it is within. Also note that not reverses the logic for the entire media query as a whole, not individual parts of it. not x and y = not (x and y) ≠ (not x) and y
Exclusive
To ensure that only one media query is in effect at time, make the numbers (or whatever) such that that is possible. It may be easier to mentally manage them this way.
#media (max-width: 400px) {
html { background: red; }
}
#media (min-width: 401px) and (max-width: 800px) {
html { background: green; }
}
#media (min-width: 801px) {
html { background: blue; }
}
Logically this is a bit like a switch statement, only without a simple way to do "if none of these match do this" like default.
Overriding
There is nothing preventing more than one media query from being true at the same time. It may be more efficient to use this in some cases rather than making them all exclusive.
#media (min-width: 400px) {
html { background: red; }
}
#media (min-width: 600px) {
html { background: green; }
}
#media (min-width: 800px) {
html { background: blue; }
}
Media queries add no specificity to the selectors they contain, but source order still matters. The above will work because they are ordered correctly. Swap that order and at browser window widths above 800px the background would be red, perhaps inquisitively.
Mobile First
Your small screen styles are in your regular screen CSS and then as the screen gets larger you override what you need to. So, min-width media queries in general.
html { background: red; }
#media (min-width: 600px) {
html { background: green; }
}
Desktop First
Your large screen styles are in your regular screen CSS and then as the screen gets smaller you override what you need to. So, max-width media queries in general.
html { background: red; }
#media (max-width: 600px) {
html { background: green; }
}
You can be as complex as you want with this.
#media
only screen and (min-width: 100px),
not all and (min-width: 100px),
not print and (min-height: 100px),
(color),
(min-height: 100px) and (max-height: 1000px),
handheld and (orientation: landscape)
{
html { background: red; }
}
Note the only keyword was intended to prevent non-media-query supporting browsers to not load the stylesheet or use the styles. Not sure how useful that ever was / still is.
And for media queries priorites
sources : one two three four five
If you have not defined css properties for different medias, how do you expect the browser to render it?
You need to for example:
#media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
#header
{
width:100%
background:red;
}
}

media query for 320px and less

I am writing a media query for a web-page and managed to write media queries for 480px and more. But when I write media query for 320px 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 with landscape views in these devices but doesnt scale for portrait views. Can anybody please point out the error in the query. This is the media queries I used.
#media (max-width: 320px)
{
html
{
font-size:0.1em;
}
}
#media (max-width: 480px)
{
html
{
font-size:0.20em;
}
}
#media (max-width: 767px)
{
html
{
font-size:0.38em;
}
}
#media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 979px)
{
html
{
font-size:0.65em;
}
}
#media (min-width : 980px) and (max-width:1025px)
{
html
{
font-size:0.7em;
}
}
For 320px I also tried with
#media only screen
and (min-device-width : 320px)
and (max-device-width : 480px)
and (orientation : portrait)
{ /*Styles */}
and
#media only screen
and (max-width : 320px) {
/* Styles */
}
But none of them is working.Am I doing anything wrong/missing something?
Thanks in advance
Since you don't have a min-width on your 480 styles, and since those styles come later in your stylesheet, they override anything you put before them.
#media (max-width: 320px) {
html {
font-size:0.1em;
}
}
#media (min-width: 321px) and (max-width: 480px) {
html {
font-size:0.20em;
}
}
...
A
#media (max-width: 320px)
{
html { font-size:0.1em; }
}
B
#media (max-width: 480px)
{
html { font-size:0.20em; }
}
Using the above, consider a 320px viewport.
A and B are true, as 320 hits the limit of A and falls well below the max of B. But since B overrides A by being declared later in the stylesheet, font-size is dictated by the later declaration -- B
Adding a min-width:321px requirement to B would force B to test false for the 320px viewport -- so font-size would stay at 0.1em until B became true (minimum width of 321px).
EDIT (maybe a better way to think about it)
Instead of using max, max, max, why not take advantage of the min-width, until you reach a UI that may be best served with a range (like a tablet)
/* Set a base */
html { font-size:62.5% }
/* iPhone landscape range */
#media (min-width:321px) and (max-width:480px) {
html { font-size:1.2em }
}
/* larger than iPhone landscape, an in the iPad portrait range */
#media (min-width:481px) and (max-width:768px) {
html { font-size:1.6em }
}
/* bigger than iPad portrait */
#media (min-width:769px) {
html { font-size:2em }
}
