Media query
Media queries is a feature of CSS 3 allowing content rendering to adapt to different conditions such as screen resolution
Media queries were first sketched in Håkon Wium Lie's initial CSS proposal in 1994,[2] but they did not become part of CSS 1. The HTML4 Recommendation from 1997 shows an example of how media queries could be added in the future.[3] In 2000, W3C started work on media queries and also on another scheme for supporting various devices: CC/PP. The two address the same problem, but CC/PP is server-centric, while media queries are browser-centric.[4] The first public working draft for media queries was published in 2001,[5] and the specification became a W3C Recommendation in 2012 after browsers added support.
