Write some CSS overrides.

Your desktop browser's inspection and debug tools will be invaluable to help figure out exactly what CSS to override. You will be able to test your overrides right in the browser before you write your override file!

BTW, inline styles are "bad style". Drop them! Use CSS classes instead and a style sheet instead.

FWIW, I don't find the JQM grid useful at all. I use Flexbox CSS for this sort of thing.

If you set the width of a block, you will break the grid design.

It's a simple grid system for simple layouts. A blocks get you 50%/50%, B blocks get you 33/33/33, C blocks get you 25/25/25/25.

If you change the width of one block, the widths of the other blocks will NOT adjust. You'll need to set the widths of the adjoining blocks as well.

Plus you are styling in pixels, and the grid system works in percentages!
