Issue with content not wrapping inside the body tag (apart from using float or setting body and html to 100

Why on earth is the body/html or .main div not wrapping my .container div's when the browser width is between 767-960 px?! This is causing horizontal scrolling and I am completely baffled. This should definitely be working!

The only code I have is:

html, body { 
width: 100%;
}

.container {
    .clearfix;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

@media (min-width: 767px) {

.page-header
{
    height: 180px;
}

.container {
    width: 960px;
}

}

Answer №1

Solved the issue by including the following in the media-query:

html, body {
   min-width: 960px; // <= width of the .container
 }

If anyone can provide an explanation for why the .container is not causing the body to stretch to 960px, I would appreciate it!
