On my browser when i change the dimensions the mobile view works. But on a iphone 4, HTC One, Galaxy S4. Mobile view doesn't seem to work, the desktop view loads. My website i made www.ultrabeauty.co.uk/ . Followed the tutorial how to make a simple website. Also my favicon doesn't load ? 

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {

  /**********************************
  TWO COLUMN LAYOUT
  ***********************************/

  #primary {
    width: 50%;
    float: left;
  }

  #secondary {
    width: 40%;
    float: right;
  }



  /**********************************
  PAGE: PORTFOLIO
  ***********************************/

  #gallery li {
    width: 28.3333%;
  }

  #gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
    clear: left;
  }

  /**********************************
  PAGE: ABOUT
  ***********************************/

  .profile-photo {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 5% 80px 0;
  }

}

@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {

  /**********************************

  ***********************************/

  nav {
    background: none;
    float: right;
    font-size: 1.125em;
    margin-right: 5%;
    text-align: right;
    width: 45%;
  }

  #logo {
    float: left;
    margin-left: 5%;
    text-align: left;
    width: 45%;
  }

  h1 {
    font-size: 2.5em;
  }

  h2 {
    font-size: 0.825em;
    margin-bottom: 20px;
  }

You need to add a meta tag to your HTML header, like so:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no">

This will make it so the viewport width will match the device's screen width, rather than zooming out to view the whole page.

It does not. Looking at your HTML, you have the rel set to "Shortcut Icon", however, look at the article for link tags at w3schools doesn't have that as a valid option. Perhaps try changing it to rel="icon".

Hi adding 

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no">

doesn't work

Phillip Gibson

Looking at the code on your site, you set content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" as opposed to content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no".

I just tried the site on my phone though, and it seemed to work correctly.

Hi Phillip i figured out what i done wrong. I had to and the code to in the head tags of all my html files. Thanks. Does the favicon work as i put it in the root of my website so you should be able to go www.ultrabeauty.co.uk/favicon.ico so it should load, right ?

Try replacing '''html <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/img/favicon.ico" /> ''' with '''html <link type="image/x-icon" rel="icon" href="/img/favicon.ico"> '''

Disregard the above comment. I can't seem to edit it.

Try replacing

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/img/favicon.ico" />

with

<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/img/favicon.ico" />

However, trying access either http://www.ultrabeauty.co.uk/favicon.ico or http://www.ultrabeauty.co.uk/img/favicon.ico doesn't render any image. So perhaps there is something else wrong.
