   Loaded from top.php with media="(max-width: 600px)" on the <link>, so not
   one rule in this file can reach the desktop layout. That is deliberate:
   desktop stays exactly as it was.

   Measured before this file existed, at 375x667:

       course gallery        14080px   44 cards, one per row
       card list              2859px   4 cards, one per row
       placement copy         1096px   3 justified paragraphs
       testimonial             504px   rendered broken (see below)

   Together that was over 18k of a 25.8k page.

   1. Course gallery - 44 cards

   Each card is a single 1146x834 image with the artwork on the left half and
   the course name, description and duration pill baked into the right half.
   At two-up a card is ~165px wide, which renders that baked text at roughly
   4-8px - illegible. So the tile crops to the artwork half only and the
   course name is drawn back as real HTML text over a gradient.

   1146 / 576 = 1.99, hence background-size: 199%. Every card image in this
   set shares those exact dimensions, so one ratio crops all 44 correctly.

   7c. Footer rows

   First attempt put the three contact blocks in three columns. That fit, but
   at ~110px per column the e-mail addresses broke mid-word
   ("info@iifamultimed / ia.in"), which reads as a broken page rather than a
   compact one. Legibility wins: one column, with the icon set beside its
   lines instead of stacked above them, which recovers most of the height the
   three-column version was buying.

   7d. Footer container overflow (pre-existing bug)

   .footerContainer computes to display:table at a fixed 1104px, so on a
   375px screen every row inside it is laid out three times wider than the
   viewport. body{overflow:hidden} then clips the excess, which is why the
   footer's right-hand content simply was not there - the e-mail and address
   blocks were rendering off-screen rather than stacking.

   Making it a normal fluid block is what lets the rows above lay out.

   7f. Logo row: kill the whitespace flex items

   The markup separates the logos with "&nbsp;&nbsp;". In a flex container
   each of those text runs becomes an anonymous flex item, and at the footer's
   inherited 22px they were wide enough to push the fourth logo onto a row of
   its own. font-size:0 on the container collapses them; the real text inside
   gets its size back explicitly.

   This also brings "VISITORS" and the counter's alt text back to a sane size
   - they were inheriting that same 22px.
