With the explosion in technology, it is becoming more important to ensure that your web site will work on the variety of devices now available.
Web sites can be viewed on mobile phones, tablets, lap tops and conventional PC's. These vary in size, with widths of 240px, 320px, 640px, 800px, 1024px and much larger. The newer devices can additionally be used in conventional "Landscape" or "Portrait" mode.
Continued development of Bridgewebs uses the Web Page (HTML5) features now available with the Browsers on these devices.
It is necessary, not only, to decide "When to Adapt", but "How to Adapt". So, as long as the Bridgewebs Web site is built using the features of Bridgewebs, news items, attaching pictures etc. Bridgewebs uses an inbuilt algorithm to automatically "Adapt" the layout to suit the particular device and how it is being used.
There are certain breakpoints and these may be fine-tuned in the light of feedback and experience.
- Adapt 1000px - considered conventional and anything of this size or greater will display as built.
- Below 900px - The "Right" hand column will show below the center box.
- Below 800px - The Banner will shrink
- Below 600px - The page content will show below the Menu
In addition, pictures and images will shrink as the screen size reduces.
There are couple of particular issues the Club Administrator could do to help
- Avoid using hard-coded widths in Tables
- Avoind using a continuous set of characters as a paragraph separator.
Some users may prefer to see the website as if on a PC and this allowed with the introduction of an extra box [Switch to Desktop] or [Switch to Mobile]. In "Mobile" mode the items are presented down the page, sideways scrolling is reduced and the text is large. This is useful for Visitors to your web site.
If your web site doesn't work as expected, please contact info@bridgewebs.com to see how to improve this or provide for further flexibility.
