Nagging website issues I can't resolve.

I am creating a personal website and have a few pressing issues that I can't seem to figure out the solution for. 1) My site works well on my desktop, but when I access it on any mobile site there is an internal server error. 2) When on a windows PC, when I split screens (i.e. move my site from full screen to half screen) a black line appears through all my text on the site. 3) I changed my favicon photo in my public html documents, but for some reason the hostgator logo still appears. My site is prahaladhnagarajan.com

Thanks in advance for the time!

I think you do not have bootstrap responsive divs set up correctly from what I can see. checkout w3schools.com/bootsrap for how to set up your divs to be responsive and I think it will fix your problem.

  1. The server error is probably from a conflict. I would break the site by removing each .js file to see if that works.
  2. Your body tag color property is creating the line.
  3. I am not seeing a HostGator favicon.

Where did you find this code, and do any of these problems occur without maxcdn?

Thanks for the prompt responses. For some reason I am still seeing the hostgator favicon on my machine. Is it because of cookies? This is the information I got from hostgator support regarding the mobile site:

[Mon Dec 26 01:26:09 2016] [error] [client 73.155.85.12] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace. Your site's mobile version is having a redirect issue, it would seem.

The redirect on mobile is probably because of a misconfigured cdn or the result of the first problem. The internal redirects mean one of your files is broken or missing. DO NOT USE 'LimitInternalRecursion', instead fix the problem.

Use this in your header for your favicon and remember to put in the path to your icon:

<link href="yourpath/favicon.ico" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" />

Fix your document so that it is truly responsive to get rid of those lines.
