To anyone willing to help a frustrated web designer.
My thing is databases, VB, SQL, Access.
However, I am designing a website for a small company.
I have the header fixed, and so on, but I cannot get to
make all the elements responsive.
I have provided breakpoints but from my understanding, one can
use another system where breakpoints are not needed.
Please help.
I reached out to Pablo, but his question was whether or not I used
Layout grid or Flexbox?
My answer was neither.
I hope I don't have to start from scratch again.

Thank you all in advance for your help.

Dwight,
You can have a system with no breakpoints, but then you have to use Flex grids or similar.
If you use breakpoints without them, you have to position every element in every breakpoint - then it becomes 'responsive' (actually, adaptive - look at this article
https://www.interaction-design.org/lite ... ive-design )
I would recommend thinking about starting again if you want it truly responsive. I know I keep mentioning it, but I have produced a free responsive template you are welcome to look at, customise or just extract bits from - find it here

If you want to continue with using breakpoints and no grids, I've also produced a template which may help you. You can find this one here
https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/forum ... hp?t=88171
If you look at all these and maybe others, and are still stuck, you will need to let us know which bits don't work and also provide a copy of your .wbs file so we can actually see what you are doing.
I hope this helps a bit.

Thanks, Alan for all of your help and template.
I will definitely study this and see if I can incorporate this method
you have provided me.
Will certainly get back to you.
Sincerely,
Dwight

I don't seem to understand these JavaScript elements.
I cannot select any of these, resize them or other.
I have images, text and some of these elements are links. That's it.
I want to make my images and text responsive.
What do I use?

You do not need JavaScript to create a responsive website.
The easiest way to get familiar with flexible layout is by using layout grids.

Note that almost all demo templates use layout grids to implement flexible layouts. So, there are many examples available:
