Been reading Implementing Responsive Design by Tim Kadlec--which is surprisingly well-written for an IT book.
Kadlec seems to recommend building a site's CSS from the cell phone up--because some phones still don't handle media queries. In other words he starts off by making his sites look good at the smallest resolution, and then uses media queries (and sometimes Javascript) to add floats and what ever else is needed to make the site look right as the view port increases. This came as a surprise to me. I assumed everybody did the opposite: still build for the desktop, then fiddle with media queries and viewport widths to make the site acceptable for pads and phones too. His approach does sometimes require Javascript, to loop through all the block elements of a certain class and then add to add CSS as needed. What are the group's thoughts about this approach? Do you build from the desktop down, or from the cell phone up? -- /* Colin (Sandy) Pittendrigh >--oO0> */ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
