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).

Im havin a big problem.
Im programming a website for a company in germany.
Since there are so many sites on the page i took an iframe in my index.html file instead of using a div tag because this would need a lot more time since i need to write the div stuff on every page.
Every Browser like IE,Chrome,Opera and also Safari shows the website like i want it to be shown.
But Firefox shows the iframe part in a small window in the left upper side of the window.
So you cant see any content or even 100x bigger than normally and in a quite small window.
So do I have to change anything in my code or do i need to add something?
The bigger problem is actually that the man who is able to start the server doesnt want to start it for let the website goin online because that doesnt work on firefox.
He explained the problem to me that way. but my program (mirabyte) shows everything in the right way (ALSO FIREFOX) so what can I do now because I need to let him try every small change i will do. So it would be nice if anyone does know the EXACT answer because he or she already had the problem.
Any ideas?
Thank you so much

Make sure that if you have the iframe in any sort of container, that container also has the applicable height attribute. Also make sure that the iframe height is applied to both the HTML and the body tags.
Beyond that, we would have to see the part of your code where you're declaring the iframe to say anything more specific.
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 .
So this is my first time trying to use a responsive framework...also fairly new to building responsive sites in general - but had a lot more luck with just building them from scratch and sizing each element...though Foundation seems like a much better solution if I could just get my head around it!
Work in progress is here: http://client.analog.la/360/
It's behaving 'alright' in my desktop browsers (resizing down to 400) except for a problem with the menu - the issue I'm having is trying to get the menu to drop down below the logo and be properly centered.
On actual mobile and tablet having way more issues...the menu is sitting above and the whole layout or to one side and not dropping down at all. On ipad the whole layout seems to be only about 95% page width with a random margin down the right hand side...on iPhone the whole layout only seems to be about 50% width...which just looks...awful. There's so much discrepancy between how the layout looks on devices vs. how it looks on desktop at the same resolution that I'm a bit baffled...Also, really not sure where I went wrong with the sizing to make it look so wrong on devices!
Any help would be massively appreciated!
Thanks,
Not sure if you're still looking for help on this, but there are a number of issues in your codebase, and it's hard to say which ones are causing the behavior you're trying to address. Your very first div uses the columns class, but it's not nested in a row. Elsewhere, you have rows immediately nested in other rows with no apparent benefit, more columns nested in other columns without an interposing row, and nested rows that aren't set to collapse. You're also using spacer.png in a few places, which almost reduced me to tears.
And your top level headers are in spans instead of h1. My only guess here is that you were attempting to sidestep Foundation's default styles? Use a class. You need those h1s for SEO, semantics, etc.
No insult intended, but you might do well to check out Treehouse and sharpen your coding skills - could save you a lot of time and frustration in future work.
I have a site with a header div and an iframe used to display a map in the rest of the page, resizing to the maximum space it can under the header div.
I can get the method working on Firefox and Chome, but the iframe won't fill the div on IE9. Anyone know what the issue is? Rather than post html, here's a few links to the problem page and the old page I'm re-designing that does work in the same way in IE9.
New problem page (doesn't resize div in IE9):

Old page using the same technique that does work in IE9:

It might be my abuse of Twitter's Bootstrap? I use bootstrap it as it's meant to be used on normal content pages, but this page is a one-off that needs to display a map in as much of the page as possible while still following the styling for the header as the rest of the site.
And my use of tables for layout is also bad practice I know, but it's the only method I've found to achieve the desired effect with the iframe (believe me, I've tried a lot of ideas out that don't use tables!).
Thanks in advance any CSS / HTML gurus out there that can help!
How much time is lost making IE behave like other browsers!? Microsoft must cost the planet an incredible amount in lost man hours and extra expense supporting IE.
Ah, just noticed I had to solve this issue with the original page.
Removing the DOCTYPE element from the top of the page resolves the issue in IE9!
I'm very new to web design and just made a simple one page website for my iOS app here. I now want to make it so that when this page is opened on an iPhone, the whole thing is zoomed out enough because right now the right half of the page doesnt show. From my understanding and research so far, I need to use media queries and create a separate CSS stylesheet for mobile. However I feel like for such a simple page there should be an easier solution with some plug-and-play code. Something consisting of a simple conditional-type statement checking if the user is on mobile, and if so, gives the new dimensions of the page. I don't really know anything except for the very basics of html, css, and javascript when it comes to web development, so simple explanations would be highly appreciated.
I think you have to go for http://www.jquerymobile.com it is very good framework for mobile web.
Instead of creating a mobile-specific page you might want to experiment with the viewport meta-tag. The tag isn't used by desktop browsers, but it scales the size of what you see on a mobile device's screen. You can also check out Apple's guidelines for more information.
