    open developers tool - responsive design view in firefox. then try resizing the box. if you see the website 'responds' to the width, like for example no horizontal scroll when your shrink the size, then you can assume that the site is responsive.

    you can also try to open on different browser on different platform.

    Now that the 'definition' has been mentioned, I'd like to also let you know that, nowadays, you NEED a responsive web design! If you plan on developing a website, you will need to pick a responsive theme for it. It's not just for your visitors so they can visit your website on their mobile devices, but Google starts to penalize non-responsive web pages as well..

  • Responsive design is kind of like silly putty. You can squeeze it and stretch it but it remains silly putty. Same for your site.

    Responsive Web design is the approach that suggests that design and development should respond to the user’s behavior and environment based on screen size, platform and orientation. The practice consists of a mix of flexible grids and layouts, images and an intelligent use of CSS media queries. As the user switches from their laptop to iPad, the website should automatically switch to accommodate for resolution, image size and scripting abilities.

    Responsive Web design is an approach whereby a designer creates a Web page that “responds to” or resizes itself depending on the type of device it is being seen through. That could be an over sized desktop computer monitor, a laptop, a 10-inch tablet, a 7-inch tablet, or a 4-inch smartphone screen.
