Hello,

I am trying to create a horizontal stretch website:

I thought width: auto already scretch the width horizontal fully. but this is not the case. I wonder why?

about.php

<div id="testimonial"><br> <div id="bounceInRight"> <center><b>TESTIMONIAL</b><br><br>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, euismod consectetuer adipiscing<br> elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt<br> ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.<br><br> </center> <img src="Images/About/left.jpg"> <img src="Images/About/testperson.jpg"> <img src="Images/About/right.jpg"> <center>Lorem ipsum dolor sit</center> </div> </div> </center> <p>Hallo</p> <div class="step-down"> <p>Hallo</p> </div> <?php include('footer.php'); ?>

style.css

#testimonial { width: auto; background-color: red;}

#footer { padding: 30px; width: auto; background-color: black; color: white; height: 220px;}

Width auto uses the (inherited) width of the parent container. Use the DOM/debugger tools to find which parent has a specific width set.

ok, I get that part done.

What about this one:

I wonder why the bootstrap only works in normal pc size, but when I try to view it in handphone (by using Google Chrome - Samsung Galaxy S4) The blog moves differently compare to the pc. It seems like the bootstrap does not works out correctly.

You're using bootstrap responsive, but you drop in divisions (divs) with fixed (pixel based) widths and heights (with inline styles, which is also a terrible thing to do).

One of the fundamental principals of Responsive Web Design is fluid (percentage based) widths.

Is this what you mean?

The result remains the same. I cannot see the box moves fluidly in mobile phone view through google crome pc (Samsung Galaxy S4).

Diafol gave you already the advise to start learnng HTML & CSS, because you reaaly have to. There are too many things wrong in that HTML of yours. Learn to walk first, before you start running. If you don't understand the basics, you'll keep hitting wall after wall after wall!
