skip to Main Content

For some reason, when I view my webpage on my desktop (normal window width), the columns seem to be fine. However, when I resize my window, some columns tend to be higher than other columns.

Code: (Please resize window for weird columns)

  1. If I’m understanding correctly, you have a responsive website, which resizes depending on the size of the browser, therefore when the browser window width is decreased the columns resize and all of the text remains and with nowhere to go it expands downwards, causing the text/images in that column to be longer and skinnier. I didn’t see anything “weird” besides that.

    I see it causes multiple problems with your site, I haven’t dealt with any completely responsive sites, But what I would recommend is that you set minimum and maximum widths, with the min-width and max-width in CSS.

    Hope that helped!

  2. To clarify, are you referring to the column inconsistencies in the section with “Amazing Websites”, “Just an E-Mail or Telephone Call Away”, etc.?

    If so—from the looks of it, it seems you aren’t wrapping each “row” of columns in <div class="row"></div> tags.

    For Bootstrap’s grid to work optimally, wrap each row of columns in a “row” class, like so (or check out this solution in your context on JSFiddle):

    <style>
        .box {
            margin-top: 20px;
            padding: 15px;
            border: 2px solid grey;
        }
    </style>

    <div class="container">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>1st Row, 1st Column</h2>
            </div>
    
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>1st Row, 2nd Column</h2>
            </div>
    
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>1st Row, 3rd Column</h2>
            </div>
        </div>
    
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>2nd, 1st Column</h2>
            </div>
    
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>2nd Row, 2nd Column</h2>
            </div>
    
            <div class="col-sm-4 box">
                <h2>2nd Row, 3rd Column</h2>
