<hr>
<p>Total <span class="price" style="color:black"><b>$30</b></span></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Step 2) Add CSS:
Use CSS Flexbox to create a responsive layout:
Example
.row {
display: -ms-flexbox; /* IE10 */
display: flex;
-ms-flex-wrap: wrap; /* IE10 */
flex-wrap: wrap;
margin: 0
-16px;
}
.col-25 {
-ms-flex: 25%; /* IE10 */
flex: 25%;
}
.col-50 {
-ms-flex: 50%; /* IE10 */
flex:
50%;
}
.col-75 {
-ms-flex: 75%; /* IE10 */
flex: 75%;
}
.col-25,
.col-50,
.col-75 {
padding: 0 16px;
}
.container {
background-color: #f2f2f2;
padding: 5px 20px 15px 20px;
border: 1px solid lightgrey;
border-radius: 3px;
}
input[type=text] {
width: 100%;
margin-bottom: 20px;
padding: 12px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 3px;
}
label {
margin-bottom:
10px;
display: block;
}
.icon-container {
margin-bottom: 20px;
padding: 7px 0;
font-size: 24px;
}
.btn {
background-color: #4CAF50;
color: white;
padding: 12px;
margin: 10px 0;
border: none;
width: 100%;
border-radius: 3px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 17px;
}
.btn:hover {
background-color: #45a049;
}
span.price {
float: right;
color: grey;
}
/* Responsive layout
- when the screen is less than 800px wide, make the two columns stack on top
of each other instead of next to each other (and change the direction - make
the "cart" column go on top) */
@media (max-width: 800px) {
.row
{
flex-direction: column-reverse;
}
.col-25 {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
}
