dashboard app not scaling on mobile devices

Hi!: I tried to modify the design for a dashboard web app that i'm currently developing. When I re-size the browser, the design scales as desired; the problem is that it is not scaling on mobile devices. Appreciate some tips on what i'm doing wrong. Dashboard web app: http://report.ciracet.com:81/admin_app/Dashboard/Dashboard.aspx

Thanks,

I just needed to add the meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" tag to my project. Thanks anyway.

Hi Josue Negron when you say the design scales, but not on mobiles... is it a particular area of the website that you're not happy with? I know you've posted the code for the .smll-reports (the blocks at the top, i.e. "308 May Opened PMs") but can you be a little more specific, as to what it's not doing and what you want it to do?

Hey Caroline, thanks for your response. The problem is that I cannot get the web app to be responsive on mobile devices. i.e, as you noticed I want the blocks at the top to be displayed as block (instead of inline, when it gets to a width of 708px or less) and have a width of 97% (each block). When I resize the browser view port the design scales well, but when I open the web app on, for example, my Galaxy S4 the blocks are still displayed inline & so on with the charts... The design is in percentage. I don't know what I'm missing here. Appreciate your help. Thanks!
