Hi Ron,
I usually put width:100%;max-width:600px; for situations where the element will
fill the screen up to a certain size and then max it so it stops at the width I
desire.
And yes, like Tom said, you have to point to something to make it change in
your media query.
@media ... (...) {
#some_element {
width:100%;
max-width:600px;
}
}
HTH,
Best,
Karl
