When I resize my browser (Safari) down to 480px, the changes do not take into effect. The sidebar doesn't go on the top and the background colour doesn't change red. On Chrome however, it works perfectly. What's causing this?

What version of Safari do you run? :-)

Safari doesn't resize down to 480px which is why my media query for max-width:480px wasn't showing up. Not sure if this is just with the latest version of Safari on Yosemite. I remember being able to resize it smaller...
Anyway... All good now!

For example, you can hide logo / company name when the viewport is narrow to minimize overlap with navigation. However, Safari on Windows may not respond correctly. It behaves as though the media queries are ignored. On the other hand, it responds like other browsers at 100%.
