I've been troubleshooting a puzzling issue lately. I've been examining various smartphone screen sizes in Chrome Dev Tools' mobile view, and I keep noticing this strange white space on the right side of my page. It's persistent despite my efforts to locate any margin or padding that might be causing it.
Initially, I suspected the Bootstrap row class was to blame, so I made sure to nest the row inside a container-fluid div as recommended in the documentation.
However, what baffles me is that when I inspect each element, they all appear to have this white space on the right – even the HTML tag itself. This leads me to believe that the issue goes beyond just Bootstrap.
I attempted adding CSS properties like box-sizing: border-box; and overflow-x: none; but saw no changes in the display.
In the mobile Dev Tools, I can drag the cursor left and right, causing the entire screen to shift to accommodate that blank area on the right. This behavior doesn't occur when viewing the live site on an actual phone, but there still seems to be a slight vertical white space behind the cursor. Maybe it's just part of the cursor design in the phone settings, although seeing it consistently across different phone sizes in Chrome Dev Tools makes me question my sanity!
For context, my website is built using .NET Core 6 MVC with Bootstrap 5. I'm almost tempted to start eliminating my media-query CSS rules one by one to pinpoint the culprit. The issue isn't glaringly obvious, but it's bothering me nonetheless.
If anyone has insight into what might be causing this mysterious white space, please point me in the right direction.
