[NEED HELP] Screen orientation lock for a website JS/CSS

Eixi — Tue, 30 Aug 2022 12:38:07 +0000

Need some help on a website I am working on. Basically I wish to implement a orientation lock when the website is viewed on a mobile device and the website would be locked on a portrait mode.

I found this implementation method on mdn web docs: Link to the article

Does anyone here have experience on making a screen orientation lock for websites? If you have any tips or trick or any resources to share thank you in advance!

Thanks for reading :)

[FIXED FOR NOW] Need help with flexbox

Eixi — Tue, 26 Jul 2022 13:26:00 +0000

I need help with flexbox. I need the flexbox "grid" to be in 2x2 squares. I have no idea how to make it that there are only 2 boxes per "row". All what I have been able to do is to have them all in a row or column.

Image of the idea that I have:

In this image I have 2x2 grid of boxes that are responsive and the boxes have something inside. I have been able to center the elements inside the boxes.

I am also using grid on the website for the other layout but I feel like using flexbox for these type of elements is more convenient.

Thank you for reading and helping out!

Need help on creating a mobile-first website with quiz-like presentation (HTML CSS & Javascript)

Eixi — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 10:09:05 +0000

I need some help with creating a mobile-first website with quiz-like presentation. The idea is to create a website layout similar to this: https://ig.ft.com/climate-game/

One-page application where all the content is loaded up when first opening the page.
There will be no score or logic behind it, the idea is to display text and images in very bite-size manner.

I am basically trying to find a javascript trick to display content on a page one at a time and with a press of a button it would display the next page or smoothly scroll down the page to the desired part (scrolling would have to be disabled). The main issue I am having is that the way the content is displayed and loaded (like when the button is pressed how the page will load and from where).

I cannot share any of the code or more context about it, sorry!

Any tips, articles or videos with tutorials or explanations on how to create a website like this is all welcome.

Thank you for the help!

Need resources to learn (I don't have idea where to go)

I've been doing through this fullstack course at school. We are focusing on javascript, node.js, express, http and mariadb. Also we started using xampp with mariadb. So mainly we are working on backend + some javascript programming.

I am new to this and getting quite overwhelmed. Can people here provide any resources for more learning (the more accessible the better). Youtube videos, courses, articles.

I asked the teacher and he was only able to guide me to the DOCUMENTATION of the languages/technologies itself... which is quite overwhelming.

Thank you for reading!
