Reply To: [Solved] How to shorten paragraph width

[nyfiken]

Thanks Soronbe,

I appreciate what you said about the unnecessary use of an empty p in the two column solution of my first page! I have corrected that.

I’m sorry but I must ask you about the use of % in

p {
width: 10%;
}

Wouldn’t this cause a problem with the responsive design where everything else in this Genesis theme counts in pixels?

Wouldn’t the best be to match the

.wrap {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1140px;
}

with a

p {
width: 668px;
}

?

And if so, where in the code below is it to be added?

/* Defaults Genesis Minimum 2.0.1

body,
h1,
h2,
h2 a,
h2 a:visited,
h3,
h4,
h5,
h6,
