    Having some minor issues with the home page of this site: http://www.culturalconfidence.com.

    This top section is running off the screen in a mobile device:

    Most businesses and other organizations work across cultures every day of the week.

    Do you work with culturally diverse clients and counterparts?
    Do you work with global virtual teams?
    Do you plan to relocate employees and their families on international assignments?

    We can help you be EFFECTIVE and SUCCESSFUL in a global environment.

    The client would like to leave the margins where they are. In a previous post, it was suggested that I make the margins at 0 instead of the 140px they are now. That does solve the problem, but the client wants that section of text to be left-justified and indented.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    but the client wants that section of text to be left-justified and indented.

    What does the client mean by “indented”. Clearly the 140px indentation does not work on mobile.

    She wants that entire section of text to be shifted to the right.

    Trying to convince her otherwise.

    If there’s no solution, I will let her know.

    Have you showed her the results of the indentation?

    I did. She just wonders why everything else on the page looks fine on mobile.

    She may have to compromise on her 140px margin to something smaller

    OK, I figured it out. Instead of 140px, I just used percentages. So I did {margin-left: 6%}.

    The sentences shifted to the right as she wanted it to, and it looks good on mobile too.
