Page not responsive when using page forwarding, with masking

Hello,
When I use a GoDaddy forward, with masking turned on, the page is not responsive.

Any ideas if this can be overcome?

The page is www.dunwichcottage.com/sense

I’m forwarding from www.sen-se.org

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

Yes, it will not work and please don’t implement that. The HTML code contains this line which is responsible for page’s responsive behavior for each device, without it, it will not respond

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

Masking it will wrap your site with frameset which doesn’t have that line, and this is the code from www.sen-se.org



<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>

<head>
  <title>SEN Systems Engineering </title>

</head>
<frameset rows="100%,*" border="0">
  <frame src="http://www.dunwichcottage.com/sense" frameborder="0" />
  <frame frameborder="0" noresize />
</frameset>

<!-- pageok -->
<!-- 12 -->
<!-- -->
</html>

If you can change it to something like this then it should work.



<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>

<head>
  <title>SEN Systems Engineering </title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
</head>
<frameset rows="100%,*" border="0">
  <frame src="http://www.dunwichcottage.com/sense" frameborder="0" />
  <frame frameborder="0" noresize />
</frameset>

<!-- pageok -->
<!-- 12 -->
<!-- -->
</html>

Thanks!

Thank you so much for the reply.
Sadly GoDaddy are not prepared to add that line into then masking code.

Can you think of an alternative solution? I can’t add that line to the page somewhere?

Hi Mike,

I’m not certain, however you may try following this method as an alternative (https://sg.godaddy.com/help/manually-forward-or-mask-your-domain-or-subdomain-422).

Thanks!
