web - convert a 960 grid based site to responsive -

the website designed (www.aim.ca) using nathan smith's 960 grid. wanted convert site responsive , i've looked 996 grid (responsive) system. http://996grid.com/

in process of implementing css scripts , javascript, had encountered setbacks... first time using responsive grid system.

my questions are: - should modify div classes , ids of separate stylesheet responsive well?

• when resize browser, elements out of proportion, see random numbers think generated js "389" , on

• can modify 960.css using media queries? how hard be?

• what best way convert 960 grid based site responsive layout?
