Please check out -- https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_responsive.asp — for an introduction as to understand how this works. There are other sources as to how to be responsive, such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and many others. Each have their own way of rendering content. Please realize that Server languages, like PHP, MySQL, el at., are really not involved in the process of presenting content, but rather only delivering content to the Browser. IOW, PHP/MySQL only provides data to the website, but it is the process of how to display the data that is under the control of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (via many different libraries) environments. While PHP is a master language that can write HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, each language controls different parts of a fully functioning website (i.e., structure-HTML, presentation-CSS, behavior-Javascript, and function-PHP) You may visit some of my examples I made for my students, such as: http://citw.lcc.edu/~sperlt/citw185/z/#home http://citw.lcc.edu/~sperlt/citw185/zz/main/index.html#home That should give you something to consider and if followed would solve the problem you present.
