Good day all, I'm experiencing a slight problem with Fluid Grid Layout in Dreamweaver CS6. I want to increase it's width so that it could be one with my Photoshop CS6 design (which is 1080px), the problem is that I can't as I am limited to 1008px. How do I increase the width? I ultimately am re-coding my design as my client demanded a responsive design but I'm clueless in that avenue which is why I resorted to re-doing everything under the set & safe default (Fluid Grid Layout) that doesn't require me to udnderstand media queries at an expert level.
While Fluid Grid Layout can save you some production time, you still need a good understanding of CSS Media Queries to use it.

Instead of fixed-widths in pixels, FLG code is all % based. It starts with the mobile layout and cascades to tablet, then desktop. If you want to use fixed-widths in pixels, you must manually change the CSS code for all three devices.
