Respond.js WordPress Plugin
A fast & lightweight polyfill for min/max-width CSS3 Media Queries (for IE 6-8, and more)
- Copyright 2011: Scott Jehl, scottjehl.com
- Dual licensed under the MIT or GPL Version 2 licenses.
The goal of this script is to provide a fast and lightweight (3kb minified / 1kb gzipped) script to enable responsive web designs in browsers that don't support CSS3 Media Queries - in particular, Internet Explorer 8 and under. It's written in such a way that it will probably patch support for other non-supporting browsers as well (more information on that soon).
