Use width in pixels for desktop size and then add max-width:100% so it can’t go wider than mobile viewport:
<div class="content-item brand-space-top-small" style="margin-bottom:1.7rem;">
<img src="https://nwscdn.com/media/wysiwyg/buyersguide/US_goal_sizes.jpg" style="width:1000px; max-width: 100%;" alt="US Soccer goal sizes" />
</div>Had to do this using inline styles to override stuff in the stylesheet etc
<div class="responsive-container" style="display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; align-items: flex-start; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0rem;">
<div class="text-container" style="flex: 1; min-width: 0; margin-right: 20px;">
<h3 style="margin-bottom: 0.4rem;">FIFA Basic</h3>

</style>Obviously, you probably want to change the parapraph text in the <p> and </p> tags and the header in <h3> tags and the image URL
I couldn’t do it all with inline styles in the end – media query had to be put in <style> tags in the HTML doc.
If you’re using a normal webpage – you want the style tags in the <head>
This is what I used to make a container ‘work’ on mobile – it was working fine on desktop, but the text was overlaying the image on mobile:
<style>
@media screen and (max-width:768px) {
.name-of-div-container {
position: relative;
transform: none;
}
}
</style>On screens that are 768px or less (i.e. mobile phones),
The “name-of-div-container” should be positioned relative with no transform styling.
This is quite specific code for the example I was using but you can replace position relative and transform none with whatever you want the element to do on a mobile device.
This is what I’ve just used.
The table in the <body> on the HTML doc:
<!--table-->
<div class="content-text section" style="padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 1vh; margin-top: 1rem; width:870px; max-width: 100%;">
<!--<div class="scroll-container scroll-x">-->
<div style="clear: both;">
<div class="scroll-container">
<div class="content-2 section " style="margin-top: 1px">
<div>
<table class="brand-p1" style= "margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; text-align: center; border-collapse: collapse; background-color:transparent; font-size: 13px; width:870px; max-width: 100%;">

<!--table--> And then this CSS:
<style>
/* Default - For larger screens */
.scroll-container {
overflow-x: hidden;
}
/* For screens with a max-width of 600px */
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
.scroll-container {
overflow-x: scroll;
}
}
</style> If you want to put text underneath an image that “floats” to the left (or right), you can use this code:
<div style="margin-bottom:0;">
<div style="float: left;">
<img src="https://nwscdn.com/media/wysiwyg/FORZA/MenHandballSize_Chart2.png" style="width: 700px;" alt="mens & boys handball size by age"/>
</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
text text text
</div>
</div>
For personal reference, this is the code I need with the correct class for my website:
<div class="content-item" style="margin-bottom:0;">
<div style="float: left;">
<img src="https://nwscdn.com/media/wysiwyg/FORZA/MenHandballSize_Chart2.png" style="width: 700px;" alt="mens & boys handball size by age"/>
</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
text text text
</div>
</div>
Instead of using pixels (px) you can use %
Better still, us viewport width and viewport height.
padding: 1vw – 1% of viewport width
padding: 1vh – 1% of viewport height
padding: 1vmin – 1vw or 1vh, whichever is smaller
padding: 1vmax – 1vw or 1vh, whichever is larger
For inline css:
style="padding-top:2vw;"For style sheets or <style> tags:
div-container{
padding-left: 12%;
padding-top: 0.5%;
}
Use % or vw and vh

<!-- </div> -->
</div>
</div>
<!--table--> Use margin:auto
For example:
<div style=”width: 45%; display: block; margin: auto;”>
Margin:auto – will automatically center align your element:
“Auto margin is used by Apple, Google, Stripe, and other design leaders as a way to horizontally center elements. By setting auto margin to an element that has a defined width, you can horizontally center the element within the boundary of its parent.”
Quote from Webflow
The width determines what percentage of the width of the page the element takes up
Not too sure what “block” does:
“display: block
An element that has the display property set to block starts on a new line and takes up the available screen width.”
Quote from freecodecamp
I think block helps make it responsive, not sure tho!
Just for fun, here’s the code and an example for a neatly aligned text and image layout:
First – you may want to use “padding-block:” – which is the padding for the top and the bottom only.
You can also use a “min()” statement or line of code, or whatever it’s called in CSS
If you type:
section {
padding-block: min(10vh, 10rem)To use “min” – you may for example have a back-ground colour, with width:70% and max width:500px
width: min(500px, 70%)
Min will “look” for the smallest value – either 500px, or 70%
Min will choose the smallest value.
If you are on a mobile for example, 70% width, is less than 500px – so on mobile the background will be 70% of the viewport for a mobile.
If you are on a desktop computer, 500px will be less than 70% of the screen width – so the background will be 500px wide.
Responsive Equal Padding Top & Bottom
If you wanted to pad the top and bottom of text in the background:
padding-block: min (30px; 10%) ;
width: max(500px, 70%)
max is the opposite – now it will use the maximum value.
on Mobile, 500px will be the largest
On Desktop – 70% will be the largest.
Yet another way to add padding, is to use “calc” and then add parameters/values for rem and vw
Rem (short for “root-em”) units dictate an element’s font size relative to the size of the root element. By default, most browsers use a font size value of 16px.
The full form of VW is viewport width. It works like the percentage unit. Specifying 10vw is equivalent to occupying 10% of entire visible screen width.
This code works okay by the looks of it:
padding-block: calc(0.75rem + 0.5vw);
padding-left: calc(0.75rem + 0.5vw);
padding-right: calc(0.75rem + 0.5vw);Here’s an example, that uses “padding: 2rem;” and “gap: 1rem:” to space the image and the
If you click on the CSS tab/button – everything below @media, is to provide a separate style and effect on mobile devices
To be honest, I having got a fecking clue with CSS Grid, I need a refresher – here’s a blog post I did earlier – https://businessdaduk.com/2022/11/21/css-grid-for-beginners-2022/
Flexbox helps you to align elements. It’s much easier and better than Float etc
Flexbox is generally used for small-scale layouts, whereas Grid is used for larger stuff.
Flexbox has 2 axes. The main axes and the cross axes.
The main axis is defined by the flex-direction property.
The cross axis will automatically run perpendicular to the main axis.
The main axis is defined by flex-direction.
Flex-direction has 4 possible values:
In the screenshot below,
display:flex makes container-1 a flex item
flex:1 – for each of the boxes, makes them evenly distributed in terms of their width. As all the flex items are given a value of 1, they are all the same size.
If you were to change the flex value for .box-1 to 4, then box-1 would take up four-sixths (4/6) of the page:
Change the order of Flex Items
With flexbox you can change the order of the flex-items, (the boxes) without changing the HTML.
To do this use the “order” property.
The code below will put box-1 in the second position, left to right.
Flex-direction: Column
By giving the container the flex-direction property, with a value of “column”, the boxes / flex items will stack on top of each other
Justify-Content
You can use the “justify-content” property to align the boxes within the flex container.
justify-content: flex-end; will push all the flex items to the right
Justify-content:center; will place the boxes in the centre of the container
Justify-content:space-between;
Aligns the content spaced evenly across the entire width of the container, with margins in between:
Space-around will add some “space around” the items, so that they have margins in between the items and also to the sides of the left-most and right-most items:
If after the dimensions of the flex-items have been set, they leave room or space, you can use the “flex-grow” property.
If you give each flex item a flex grow value of 1, then the items will take up an equal amount of the remaining space.
It could be 1, or 100, it won’t make a difference if all the items have the same value.
Below, flex item “one”, is the only flex item with a “flex grow” property, and it therefore takes up all the space that was left over from left to right by the 3 boxes.
