Record of Efforts and Images of the Issue:
I am attempting to make a table resize responsively within Bootstrap. While Bootstrap functions correctly and the table mainly works fine, the problem arises when resizing the viewport. The table does not resize proportionally from its original position; instead, it shrinks in place and loses its alignment with surrounding elements on the page.
I have tried various methods as indicated by the commented sections in my code. After extensive research across numerous browser tabs, I am still unable to find a suitable solution to this issue. Any guidance or direction would be greatly appreciated.
How can I remove that margin so the table stays aligned top and left relative to the content above it and the viewport's left wall?
Refer to my response below for the resolution to both scaling and maximizing concerns.
The jquery snippet I currently have:
$(window).resize(function()
{
var ww = $(window).width();
var hh = $(window).height();
var tt = $(".gametable").width();
var scle = 0.0;
if (ww <= 688);
{
scle = parseFloat(ww) / parseFloat(tt);
$('.gametable').css({
'-webkit-transform' : 'scale(' + scle.toString().substr(0, 4) + ')',
'-moz-transform' : 'scale(' + scle.toString().substr(0, 4) + ')',
'-ms-transform' : 'scale(' + scle.toString().substr(0, 4) + ')',
'-o-transform' : 'scale(' + scle.toString().substr(0, 4) + ')',
'transform' : 'scale(' + scle.toString().substr(0, 4) + ')'
});
}
// Other transformations and adjustments
});
An accurate portrayal of the observed behavior can be seen in the images below:
Initially, the table aligns with the left edge of the screen at a width of 688px.
However, upon applying the provided code, the table resizes but loses its correct positioning. This leads to an unwanted margin surrounding the table. My query remains: how do I eliminate this margin?
To reiterate, post-resizing using the transformation method mentioned earlier, an undesired top and left margin appears around the table. How can I rectify this to ensure the table maintains alignment with the content above it and the viewport's left boundary?
