How to resize text box input between mobile and desktop [Bootstrap]

Hello I'm using simple bootstrap textbox like this<input type="text" class="form-control" id="InputFirstName" placeholder="Firstname"id="txtFN" name="txtFN"> It works well on mobile, the text box has 100% width but it has 100% width on my desktop screen too, I don't want it to be 100% width on desktop. How do I customise it for desktop ? do I have to make 2 pages file ? one for mobile and one for desktop. Thanks.

By default on mobile the inputs are 100% width. For desktop you can set it to 50% width, for example, or even a pixel value like 250px;

Grid sizes :

  • small grid (≥ 768px) = .col-sm-*
  • medium grid (≥ 992px) = .col-md-*
  • large grid (≥ 1200px) = .col-lg-* ...

where,

md - starting at desktops and scaling to large desktops
xs - mobiles
sm - tablets
...

Example Snippet: (Mixed - mobile & desktop example)

You should wrap it into a .row and .col-* blocks and specify how you want them to be in different sizes:

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-6 col-xs-12">

    <input type="text" class="form-control" id="InputFirstName" placeholder="Firstname" id="txtFN" name="txtFN">

    <!-- You can put the whole form here -->

  </div>
</div>

Learn more about what classes to set (col-md-*, col-sm-*, etc.) in the docs.
