Media Types and Queries


Examples

@media <media type (expressions)> {
  /* media-specific rules */
}

 @media screen and (min-width: 500px) and (max-width: 800px) { ... }

or

<link rel="stylesheet" media="<media type (expressions)>" href="specific.css" />

Firefox needs spaces before and after "and"



newer

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" media="screen, handheld" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="enhanced.css" media="screen  and (min-width: 40.5em)" />


Poly, etc.

  • Respond.js - A fast & lightweight polyfill for min/max-width CSS3 Media Queries (for IE 6-8, and more)
  • device.js - a starting point for doing semantic, media query-based device detection without needing special server-side configuration, saving the time and effort required to do user agent string parsing.

320 and Up

@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) {
 /* 480 =================================================== */
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 600px) {
 /* 600 =================================================== */
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
 /* 768 =================================================== */
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 992px) {
 /* 992 =================================================== */
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 1382px) {
 /* 1382 =================================================== */
 body {
   max-width: 1440px;
 }
}

Need to confirm 320andup Sass to multifile so mobile doesn't get desktop sized styles.

Navigation

select menu;

  • TinyNav.js is a tiny jQuery plugin (362 bytes minified and gzipped) that converts ul and ol navigations to a select dropdowns for small screen. It also automatically selects the current page and adds selected="selected" for that item. This isn't the first plugin to do this and it doesn't provide a lot of options, but it might be the smallest (file size).

LESS

960 LESS

  • 960 LESS is an adaption of the 960 Grid System available at http://960.gs. This adaption is done to make use of LESS Mixins to, in theory, allow for less code to be used in the creation of a site. The flexibility of the mixins allows for pretty much any grid system to be usable, with margins of 10px per column. This allow, in theory, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24 or more columns to be used without having to create excessive amounts of code.

Grid mixins (see Sasson's layout partials for examples)

@import "960/grid"; 

Default is 12 colums. Set this in subtheme .scss;

$ninesixty-columns: 16;

Give an element a grid attribute

@include grid-container; - give to #page. sets width and auto margins
@include grid(8); - declare an 8 column wide element
@include grid-prefix(2); - add an empty 2-wide element before
@include grid-suffix(2); - add an empty 2-wide element after
@include grid-push(4); - push element 4 to the right
@include grid-pull(4); - pull element 4 to the right
@include alpha; - remove left gutter, for nested grid first element. must got after grid()
@include omega; - remove right gutter, for nested grid last element. must got after grid()
