Media Types and Queries
- CSS 2: Media types
- Recognized media types
- e.g., all, screen, print, projection, etc.
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/@media
- Recognized media types
- CSS 3: Media Queries - W3C Recommendation 19 June 2012
- MDN: CSS media 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.

- 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.
