   the wheel so-to-speak?   
      
   Use responsive CSS3 to change size and layout of page elements based on   
   viewport and @media declarations. This is called "responsive layout."   
      
   Don't use JavaScript. You'll have to do ten times as much coding with   
   JavaScript as CSS3, it will be more error-prone, and it will slow down   
   page loading.   
      
   It may take an hour or two to really grok what the DOM is doing with   
   CSS3 @media statements. It's a lot easier than messing around with JS. I   
   have built many, many websites without a single line of JavaScript that   
   look clean and scaled perfectly to whatever device is viewing.   
      
   You can also find free 'pure CSS3' responsive templates online that will   
   speed you on your way.
