Website not adapting to media queries when testing in Chrome developer.

Hi everyone,

I'm stumped by this one. I am working on a custom workspace, using Nick Petit's "How To Build a Website" template as a starting point.

I'm confused because when I scale the browser window myself the content snaps and reacts to the settings in my media queries...however, it no longer works once I go to test it in various devices using the Chrome developer tools.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...I really don't know what's wrong.

Hi Adam,

I checked it out and didn't notice any issues with responsive content. I used device emulation in Chrome developer to view the page as an iPhone4, Nexus 5, and mini iPad.

Thanks, Robert!

Yes I'm starting to think it's a glitch with the Google Chrome developer tool, as I tried testing the site on a few other emulation programs and everything rendered fine...many thanks for the feedback!
