Confused regarding best methodology to make website usable and consistent across all devices – Desktops, Netbooks or Ipads and Mobiles(mostly smart phones).
I’m not a Front End Developer or Designer so i’m not sure what is the best thing out there.
I’ve been reading on Liquid Layouts, Keeping 2 different version of style sheets(1 for screen and 1 for hand held devices) and CSS Media Queries.
I’m not sure which one of these is the best fit to provide a consistent experience to the users of my site whether they’re on smart phones(any android, BB, iphone, Nokia) netbooks or desktops.
Please help.
From what I’ve gathered (been researching it myself) it’s really a combination of everything. Liquid layouts work great for different monitor sizes, while media queries help target mobile and tablet devices. I’ve been looking the 978 Grid System to format a few websites I’m working on. It has grids for several devices, but part of me thinks it might be a bit too bulky for what I want to do.
