I have an input field with a background and a fixed width/height. It looks good in all the browsers on my desktop. But for some reason it looks bigger on the iPad and iPhone.
I tried several tricks in Css but nothing worked so far.
width: 120px !important;
background-image:url('../img/header-input.png');
height: 30px;
-webkit-appearance: none !important;
-webkit-border-radius: 0;
border-radius:0;
#include border-radius(0);
outline: none;
border: none;
Be careful, as far as I know Safari browser in iOS adds extra padding in the input fields.
Try using this code inside your css:
padding: 0;
Add this between your :
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
and if that doesn't work you can set styles for your phone/tablet using queries:
/* Smartphones (portrait) ----------- */
#media only screen
and (max-width : 320px) {
/* Styles */
}
/* iPads (portrait and landscape) ----------- */
#media only screen
and (min-device-width : 768px)
and (max-device-width : 1024px) {
/* Styles */
}
add this inside your header
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">

My responsive design is working in every browser but Safari. Here is a screenshot of the code in the main file and in the CSS file. Is there something I have missed? Why isn't this working?
I should add that the media query works perfectly in the HTML file in a tag but will not work in a seperate CSS file.
Thank you in advance

I was going to demonstrate screen resolution and responsive web pages, but after I managed to get an example showing on the google development tool, iPhone 7 screen emulator, but tried to browse the page on an actual phone and it's blank.
I've added the meta name:viewpoint and made sure everything is pointing to the correct file. By all accounts, it should work as it's showing on the emulator.

Just change min-device-width to min-width and max-device-width to max-width - the pixel values you use in your media queries are actually "css pixels", not "device pixels" (which are twice as much due to retina displays)
My goal is to get a big button to show on the website when it's on mobile. I want it to show when the screen is at 600px width maximum. Also, I've written some code with my classmates.
We want it to show the div tag when it's on a mobile device.
We'd love your guidance, thank you.
#media screen and (width:600px;){
.button {
display: url(http://examplepicture.com/blablabla);
}
}
#media screen and (max-width:600px){
.button {
display: block; /* alternatively inline-block */
}
}
to show on mobile. You can then have the "default" setting in your main css file to have that div hidden:
.button {
display: none;
background-image: url('http://examplepicture.com/blablabla');
/* other properties go here */
}
This will make the .button class object be hidden on viewports greater than 600px, and visible if lower.
Demo
There is no such thing as "css = mobile". You have to bind some css rules to the screen resolution.
Since all mobiles have different screen resolution, you will have to subjectively choose a limit where you consider the screen being a mobile one.
Putting:
#media screen and (max-width:600px){
.button {
display: block;
}
}
Will show the button class to every screen with a resolution less than 600px, being a mobile or a small windowed computer browser. And it will not show on tablets with more than 600px width.
Any Windows or Linux or MacOS user on a desktop computer will be able to see the "mobile" version of a website if they shrink their browser's window.
EDIT: I updated the code.
make sure you have this in your <head> section of your HTML:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
You have some syntax errors in your css. Try this: https://jsfiddle.net/DIRTY_SMITH/esptpmwk/8/
#media (max-width:600px){
.button {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-image: url("http://lorempixel.com/400/200/");
}
}
And if you want the button not to be visible over 600px do this: https://jsfiddle.net/DIRTY_SMITH/esptpmwk/10/
.button {
display: none;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-image: url("http://lorempixel.com/400/200/");
}
#media (max-width:600px){
.button {display: inline;}
}
Step 1 : <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
Step 2 : <div class="onphone">Hello</div>
Step 3 :
.onphone{display:block;}
#media screen and (max-width:768px){
.onphone{display:none;}
}
It's typically better to create individual CSS sheets for mobile devices... In that case you can do media selectors for your CSS sheets... Here is basically what I use in most cases
<!-- Desktop: Firefox , Chrome , IE -->
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (min-device-width:769px)"href="/CSS/Style.css"/>
<!-- Mobile devices: phone and ipad -->
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (max-device-width: 480px) and (orientation:portrait)"href="/CSS/phone_portrait_style.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (max-device-width: 640px) and (orientation:landscape)"href="/CSS/phone_landscape_style.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (device-width: 768px) and (device-height: 1024px) and (orientation:portrait)"href="/CSS/ipad_portrait_style.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (device-width: 768px) and (device-height: 1024px) and (orientation:landscape)"href="/CSS/ipad_landscape_style.css" />
Then in each of those sheets, you can create the CSS you want to be shown on whichever specific device you'd like. So for a phone maybe the button is 240px when in portrait, but 320px in landscape.
Just be careful, because the way you have it, your CSS for phones will ONLY be displayed if the resolution is exactly 600px.
You should also note that in your mobile portrait css sheet you should have:
.button {
display: block;
width:100px;
background-image: url('http://examplepicture.com/blablabla');
}
and in the desktop css:
.button {
display: none;
}
And if you don't like this method, I was just trying to get you bonus points for different sized buttons for different phone/tablet orientations ;)
so on phone portrait css
.button{
display: block;
width:200px;
background-image: url('http://examplepicture.com/blablabla');
}
And BAM! You got some device-reactive CSS sheets that will impress mom and dad!
Did a simple test of #media queries to see what works:
http://www.casedasole.it/km2014/test.html
In test.css there's a #media query that should - if I've understood media queries - change the background color from black to red on landscape tablets (1024x768). The css validates, the xhtml validates, but the background stays black in FF using Chris Pederick's Web Developer Extension -> View Responsive Layouts, and in transmog.net iPad emulator (I have no iPad).
If somebody can explain why it's not working, I'm sure I'll have fun with media queries.
First off all, these are the BEST breakpoints
#media (min-width:320px) { /* smartphones, iPhone, portrait 480x320 phones */ }
#media (min-width:481px) { /* portrait e-readers (Nook/Kindle), smaller tablets # 600 or # 640 wide. */ }
#media (min-width:641px) { /* portrait tablets, portrait iPad, landscape e-readers, landscape 800x480 or 854x480 phones */ }
#media (min-width:961px) { /* tablet, landscape iPad, lo-res laptops ands desktops */ }
#media (min-width:1025px) { /* big landscape tablets, laptops, and desktops */ }
#media (min-width:1281px) { /* hi-res laptops and desktops */ }
Now in your case, use this media query instead
#media (max-width:1024px) {
html, body {
background-color: #f00;
color:#000;
}
}
You need to fix your media query, using max-device-width is not valid, you can use max-width instead.

I'm using Bootstrap as my responsive framework.
I have got my own style sheet underneath the Bootstrap CSS files, with own Media Queries in it... but when it comes to viewing my web page on my iPhone 4, the heading and tags dont change to conform the way i want to on my phone.
Here is a snippet of the way my code looks:
<link href="assets/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="assets/css/bootstrap-responsive.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="assets/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
i set the Media Queries as follow.....
/* Large desktop */
#media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }
/* Portrait tablet to landscape and desktop */
#media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 979px) { ... }
/* Landscape phone to portrait tablet */
#media (max-width: 767px) { ... }
/* Landscape phones and down */
#media (max-width: 480px) { ... }
I've already cleared the cache on my iPhone, but it's still not working
You may have missed the tag
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
before your imports.
