My website was originally designed for a 20" (4:3 aspect ratio) desktop monitor. However in 2016, I believe–correct me if I’m wrong–that a much wider screen is typical, e.g., 21" (16:9 aspect ratio) is more common. As a result, several “template” pages on the site need to have the style sheet adjusted.
For example, look at the category page on a wide monitor:
https://www.vintagetextile.com/1920s_to_1930s.htm
How can I update the style sheet so that styles are unchanged for a 20" (4:3) monitor. However, on a wide-screen monitor, although columns 1 & 2 would remain fixed; column 3 would be made narrower by increasing the right and left horizontal margins of the page?
Thanks in advance to the CSS experts at Digitalpoint, who have helped me in the past.
Here is the current style sheet:
