HTML - Switch Desktop and Mobile view is not working on browser resize












-1















I have a web page that allows switching between Mobile/Desktop view. I use the below code to toggle between desktop and Mobile layouts.



$('meta[name="viewport"]').prop('content', 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0'); // Toggle code for Mobile View

$('meta[name="viewport"]').prop('content', 'width=1024'); // Toggle code for Desktop View


The above works perfectly in chrome device simulator mode. However, if I disable the device simulator and resize the desktop to Mobile width and try the toggle, it is not working. But the viewport content property changes as per the toggle code.



Update:




  1. Responsive design works perfectly in Mobile devices (Say, when width < n Pixels); The desktop and the Mobile view is switchable using a toggle button using the above-mentioned code.

  2. Responsive design works perfectly in Desktop Browser (When width resized to < n Pixels); The Desktop and Mobile view is not switchable. This is the issue.

  • Did you tried with initial-scale=1.0? If you use Bootstrap, why you use two different layouts?

  • Did you try with .resize(). or try calling the same code within .resize().

I tried the same code in different bootstrap layouts. The results are the same. There seems to be no issue with my code.

This is intended to work on Mobile devices or simulators. Not for desktop browsers.



Switching Mobile/Desktop views in the browser seems not an option.

    I tried the same code in different bootstrap layouts. The results are the same. There seems to be no issue with my code.



    $('meta[name="viewport"]').prop('content', 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0'); // Toggle code for Mobile View


    This is intended to work on Mobile devices or simulators. Not for desktop browsers.
