box size advice…

[stevedeer]

Hi All

I need a little bit of advice.

After spending what seems like a lifetime reading about css and not ‘doing’, I’m about to set up a web site just for me to experiment in css and jquery. The site will consist of a number of fixed size square blocks that will hold the experimental content. The blocks will be floated and will fall below each other on devices such as the ipad/iphone (I don’t want to use media queries at this stage).

Is there an optimal size in pixels for the square blocks that will work across all platforms?

Cheers

Steve

Offhand…300px.

The smallest phones are 320px so that will allow some margin/padding either side.

I would use percentage widths and min-width:300px. That way you won’t have too much empty space on medium sized displays
