Media queries in HTML

You can use media queries in HTML, same as CSS right?

The twitter widget code is doing my head in.

What I want to do is below a certain height, only show two tweets, above a certain height, three tweets.

You can't do anything with the twitter code via CSS aside from your container and what twitter lets you do.

I thought I'd be clever and have two segments of code. One set to three tweets and one set to two then hide the one I didn't want using css. That broke the widget though. So a no go.

Anyone got any ideas?

If I can use media queries I HTML, then I reckon just putting the two sections of code in queries will work because only one will be loading, not duplicates. I hope anyway.

What about using the media=(max-height:830px) in the tag like I would a class? That work?

No I don't think so, check out dochub.io, maybe go old school and use an iframe and a media query. If that doesn't work, create a codepen so we can get a better idea of what you are working with.

Cool site.

I'm going to go a different route and make the container that the twitter feed in, a fixed height. That'll solve all the problems.
