Your breakpoint locations should then be determined solely based on where your particular site design 'breaks', i.e where it needs a layout modification, in the continuum between your chosen min and max widths.


That would be correct. Every Design is different and you have different elements that need to be corrected at different screen widths. That is why you should not dwell on where to place a breakpoint. You place the breakpoint where the layout needs it to be, not where people normally put it. :)

Design outside the box.

Great point Per as usual. You are absolutely correct. I was looking at it from a different angle thanks for the clarification.

A very interesting point Per, thanks for that. It's great to get all your thoughts on this and I appreciate your comments. I've been out of web design for some years now, although trying to keep up through .net and Web Designer mag we have over here, but you have to do it and not theorize.

This is what I've been doing with one site I've been working on. It's easy to get a site to look good a particular screen sizes but looking good at any size presets some serious challenges.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This is a site I built for my work.(RSD)

Always has Eric and always will. Even back 15 yrs ago there were different sizes and what worked on IE didn't quite work the same in Netscape. A primary reason why DHTML went the journey as we know it.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
