javascript - Hide div element when screen size is smaller than a specific size

Question

I have a div element that I want to hide when the width of the browser is less than or equal to 1026px. Is this possible to do with the css: @media only screen and (min-width: 1140px) {} If it isn't possible with css, Is there any alternative?

Extra info: When the div element is hidden, I don't want a blank white gap. I'd like the page to flow as it would if I deleted the div element entirely from the code.

The div I am hiding is <div id="fadeshow1"></div>.

HTML5 Doctype.

I used javascript to place a gallery into that div.

You can do this with CSS:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1026px) {
    #fadeshow1 {
        display: none;
    }
}

We're using max-width, because we want to make an exception to the CSS, when a screen is smaller than the 1026px. min-width would make the CSS rule count for all screens of 1026px width and larger.

Something to keep in mind is that @media queries are not supported on IE8 and lower.
