I was expecting that my web would change when screen size changes like I coded below
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
.container {
max-width: 1170px;
}
}
@media (min-width: 900px) {
.container {
max-width: 870px;
}
}
@media (min-width: 600px) {
.container {
max-width: 570px;
}
}
But it doesn't work. I shrank browser size, looking closely at the screen size's change with developer tool. I thought screen would be updated according to the media queries when screen size reaches the break points.
It works only once when loading the document.
What should I do to do this as a real-time? should I use some script?
The problem is the rules. When browser reaches 1200px, it qualifies for all 3 rules. http://jsfiddle.net/jonms83/5q6etqex/
