Side By Side Images Responsive - 3 Columns Desktop to 1 Column on Mobile

I need html and css for a simple page that will have 3 images with text centered underneath each image, side by side on desktop, that goes to 1 column on mobile devices. So 3 columns to 1 column. Can anyone help? Has to be .php file to work with our site if that matters. I will use the existing header footer code for our site, and put this html code into the body. I looked at templates in Dreamweaver, and they were not helpful to me.

Thanks!

    I'm going to cut to the chase and use CSS GRIDS because it does exactly what you want without media queries.  And it will work with any number of items.

     

    <!doctype html>
    <html lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>CSS Grid Evenly Distributed Layout</title>
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <style>
    body {
    width: 95%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    padding: 2%;
    }
    .grid {
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(200px, 1fr));
    grid-auto-rows: minmax(150px, auto);
    grid-gap: 1em;
    border: 1px dotted silver;
    }
    .module {
    background: #eaeaea;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
    min-height: 200px;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    
    <body>
    <h3>Welcome to CSS Grids</h3>
    <div class="grid">
    <div class="module">1</div>
    <div class="module">2</div>
    <div class="module">3</div>
    <div class="module">4</div>
    <div class="module">5</div>
    <div class="module">6</div>
    <div class="module">7</div>
    <div class="module">8</div>
    <div class="module">9</div>
    <div class="module">10</div>
    <div class="module">11</div>
    <div class="module">12</div>
    <div class="module">13</div>
    <div class="module">14</div>
    <div class="module">15</div>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>

    Ok, here is my testing page - this goes from 3 columns to 1 column the way I want it to, but I want it to go to 2 columns before it goes to 1 (so I need to add an inbetween). I think it will go right above this code but not quite sure what to add, can you please help?

     

    /* Responsive layout - makes a one column-layout instead of two-column layout */
    @media (max-width: 800px) {
    .flex-container {
    flex-direction: column;
    }
    }

    Grid works better now. Not sure I would have included the text as part of the images personally as its not search engine friendly but that's your decision......at least you have alt tags, which somewhat relate to the products, so Google should read those. How effective that is in comparison to including the information in heading tags or directly in the anchor tags, I dont know.
