I am creating a responsive website, and have just noticed a strange behaviour in my content pages when viewed on the iPhone. It scales correctly when loaded in portrait mode, and also when rotated to landscape. However, when rotating back to portrait the page seems to shift left, or not zoom correctly, and there is a strip of white space down the right-hand side. This white space also seems to be present on first loading in portrait as the user can swipe the page left
Rather than complicating the explanation any further, here's a link to a sample page where this behaviour is occurring. Have a look on an iPhone, then have a look at the home page which does not have this issue.
If you need to see anything further, just me know :)
Fixed it! The issue was coming from one particular div - to find it, it was a process of deleting the different elements until the issue went away.
To fix it I needed to add overflow-x: hidden to that div and it sorts it out! Hope this is useful to others with a similar issue.
I had the same problem, I fixed it by setting:
html, body { width:100%; overflow:hidden; }
This problem occurs when width of any division is greater than the width of iPAD's screen.
In my case, some divisions were having size of 1000px, so I just went for width:auto and it works. overflow-x:hidden also does the same thing, but is not a preferred way.
I don't have an iphone to test this on but I have come across something similar with websites I've created in the past. In my case its because there was a bug in safari mobile that messed with the scale when going from port to land.
The following code fixed it for me (can't remember where I got it from at the moment)
if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/i) || navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad/i)) {
var viewportmeta = document.querySelectorAll('meta[name="viewport"]')[0];
if (viewportmeta) {
viewportmeta.content = 'width=device-width, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0';
document.body.addEventListener('gesturestart', function() {
viewportmeta.content = 'width=device-width, minimum-scale=0.25, maximum-scale=1.6';
}, false);
}
}
Using "overflow-x: hidden" solves part of the problem, but screws the scroll, acting with strange behaviors (as Jason said).
Sometimes, the hardest part is to discover what is causing the problem. In my case, after a few hours, if found that the problem was in Twitter's Bootstrap:
If you're using Twitter's Bootstrap with "control-group" zones for your forms, the problem could be there. In my case i solved the problem with:
.control-group .controls {
overflow-x: hidden
}
Now the white space on the right was gone :)
I'd like to add to Navneet Kumar's solution because it worked for me. Any div tag styled with width=100% cannot also have left or right padding. The mobile browsers (I noticed the problem on iPhone and Android devices) interpret the div as having a width greater than 100%, thereby creating the extra space on the right side. (I knew this regarding fixed widths, but not percentage widths.) Instead, use width=auto in conjunction with padding.
I know it's a while since this topic was opened but I came across a similar situation and found it was because I had an element with the following properties right: -999999px; position: absolute; hidden off screen.
Changing the above to left: -999999px; position: absolute; solved the same issue the OP had (white screen to the right and ability to swipe right).
I'm using Bootstrap 3.3. I tried all of these solutions, and nothing worked. Then, I changed my <div class="container"> to <div class="container-fluid"> in the section that I was having trouble with. This solved the problem.
I tried all what has been suggested here, nothing works. Then I've relized that it connect with scale of page. So then I added <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> to header.php in my main theme's folder and it 's fixed problem.
Seems as though results are varying for different circumstances but a sitewide
html, body { width:100%; x-overflow:hidden; }
seems to have worked for me!
Fixed!
Had a similar problem. Fixed it by setting the width to a current device width.
body, html {
max-width: 100vw;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow-x: hidden;
}
SOLVED ¡¡
Since installing protostar joomla template 3.X and start adding content in the module K2 I noticed that annoying scroll with a blank space on the right side, visible especially in iphones.
A correct partial answer was gave for Eva Marie Rasmussen, adding to the body tag in the file template.css these values:
width: auto;
overflow-x: hidden;
But this solution is only partial.
Search div class or label that is causing this problem and once detected add to that class in the file templete.css the same values:
width: auto;
overflow-x: hidden;
In my case add to the class "span" these two lines to finally look like this:
[Class * = "span"] {
float: left;
min-height: 1px;
margin-left: 20px;
width: auto;
overflow-x: hidden;
And it´s working now¡¡

I am working on a responsive design where I have a div container that should be fixed at the bottom of the viewport. The problem is that the div keeps moving when I scroll up/down the page and it takes a little while until its back in its fixed position.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this jumping around? What else can I do than position: fixed and bottom: 0?
Thanks!! :)
Using position: sticky; instead of position: fixed; solved jumping problem on iOS for me.
did you try:
-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
backface-visibility: hidden;
or maybe
-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch
Hope this helps you !
There is a great article here. In my case I had the fixed element inside of the scrolling div. Once I placed it outside, no more jitters.
https://remysharp.com/2012/05/24/issues-with-position-fixed-scrolling-on-ios
For my current project, I had a <nav> element with a fixed position nested inside a <header> element with its own fixed position (semantically it could make sense to nest the nav the header for the DOM tree, but visually we wanted them to appear in separate places within the UI). Moving the nav out of the header, making it an immediate child of the <body> element, solved the problem.
I had a CSS block like this which was causing the issue.
html,
body {
overflow-x: clip;
...other styles
}
After the scrollable container tips above didn't work, I thought maybe the double overflow was the issue. I'm not sure why, but this fixed it for me:
html,
body {
...other styles
}
html {
overflow-x: clip;
}
I have the following CSS in order to get an image on my page background, and a color around it.
#home{text-align:center;background:Red url('/Content/image.png') no-repeat fixed center;}
When I run it on my computer with any browser (I prefer Chrome), everything is fine. However, when I open the website on my phone (also using Chrome), I only see the background color, not the image. However, as soon as I remove the center part (background position), I can see it.
Any idea?
After some searching, I found that images wider than 1024px don't display on iDevices. I used a media query to change the background, like this:
#media all and (max-width:900px), (max-device-width:900px){
body{
background-image: url('smaller-image.gif');
}
}
Hope that helps someone.
I faced a same problem, then I applied background:url("../img/pic1.jpg") no-repeat center; its working you can try if you faced problem in ios.
Nowadays it doesn't really matter whether picture is wider than 1024px. The issue for me that caused not displaying background-image was: background-attachment: fixed;
In this case, just change this line to background-attachment: scroll; with #media query
I'm having an issue trying to prevent the iPhone from resizing HTML e-mails to fit the screen. It seems that code below when put into the section has no effect.
My goal is just to stop the font re-sizing. I've tried other variations using -webkit-text-size-adjust:none; inline and in other way, all without success.
Would grealty appreciate any advice or an alternative solution.
#media screen and
(max-device-width: 480px){
/*fixes too big font in mobile Safari*/
html, body, form, fieldset, p, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
-webkit-text-size-adjust:none; } } </style>
The iPhone seems to be a pain when it comes to resizing things, especially when you switch the orientation of the phone. Have you tried adding the meta tag with viewport settings in it?
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"/>
It does prevent them from zooming, but I haven't found any better way to stop the iPhone from zooming on orientation change. I'm not sure if this will help in this situation, but just a suggestion to try out.
I been stuck w/ this problem and there's no available solution on the net that works.
Not until I realized what's causing this.
CAUSE:
This problem occurs if you have an image w/in the email. When the image auto-scale, the entire email/page will auto-fit in the window.
SOLUTION:
Add inline style for the image for min-width (300px so it doesn't take the entire 320px iphone width), max-width (your desired max with), and width of 100%.
i.e.
image src="image.jpg" style="width: 100%; min-width: 300px; max-width: 500px;"
Worked for me, ...hoping this can help you too! ;-)
What you are doing is correct but the problem is that rather than using -webkit-text-size-adjust:none; inside a style tag, you should use it in the below manner:
<body style="-webkit-text-size-adjust:none;">
This means you should use this as an inline css property.
To get rid of that problem you have to put the following in your CSS body tag:
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
This way Safari keeps the text to 100% of intended size. In case you set the value to none, the users won't be able to increase the font and this is an undesired behavior.
This CSS property is supported and should work.
Check the official Safari supported CSS reference:
https://developer.apple.com/library/safari/#documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariCSSRef/Articles/StandardCSSProperties.html
Furthermore please note that the media type screen is supported in:
Safari 4.0 and later.
iOS 1.0 and later.
I hope this helps.

A retina iPhone has a 640px width, your media query stops at 480px.
Anyway, you can get rid of the media query altogether. The only webkit based mail client that will use this property (-webkit-text-size-adjust:none) is iPhone's and iPad's Mail app.
Also the Mail app may also be the only client supporting CSS3
I have a page containing an empty div with a gradient in it, like this:
<div class="prodGradientArea"></div>
.prodGradientArea {
background: -moz-linear-gradient(center bottom , #ECEAE9 0%, #E4E3E2 50%) repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
display: inline-block;
float: left;
height: 10px;
width: 420px;
}
This looks brilliant in FF, IE, Chrome and Safari ... on a computer. When checked in Safari on an iPad or iPhone, I get a tiny border around the div. This is removed if I write text in the box or if I zoom in a lot but not if I write a non-breaking white space. I have even tried putting in a transparent pixel with but it made no difference to the imaginary border. Also tried setting border=0 but this was of course not the problem (it is not a real border, just a visual "feature").
So the only thing that removes it is to add pure text. I guess I can add a dot and hide it with color or so but it would break my little heart to make such an ugly fix.
Please help!

Insert in your index.php this code in the <head>-area to avoid artifacts from bad zoom interpretation of iOS:
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
Then go to your css-file and insert a 1px negative margin, to avoid this. In my website this was the footer div:
.unten {
margin-top: -1px;
}
I hope this will help you, too!
Safari renders black lines in between divs on my website at some scales. It is particularly bad when it breaks apart an image that is chopped in two different divs for a button or something. I can't put a BG in the parent of the two divs because they are transparent .pngs. Any solution or just deal with it?

TravisO also has the same problem, and I changed how the page was laid out, originally it was a simple table with 5 rows, I removed the rows and just went with images and br, still happens. I've tried to remove all padding and margins via CSS but it was pretty obvious the problem isn't the browser rendering, but with the resampling the browser does to convert the page into a size that fits on the screen. You can see my broken page at:
http://www.apinkdoor.com/show/
TravisO, you should get rid of the img styling in your css!
If you use only this:
<style type="text/css">
*
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
body
{
background-color: #f00;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
it should render properly on your iPhone!
This issue is a result of a rounding error produced in mobile safari when it rescales background images for display (it's a bug: http://openradar.appspot.com/8684766).
The solution is to increase the width of your right-button edge on its left side by 1 or 2px. Then adjust your CSS accordingly so the 1 or 2 pixels you added are not displayed by default.
The following CSS, added to the problematic div with a specified background-image, is what fixed it for me. Anything less than 3px would still show light artifacts at some Safari zoom levels.
margin-top: -3px; /* for Mobile Safari dark line artifact */
padding-top: 3px; /* for Mobile Safari dark line artifact */
I found changing the background colour of the element with the 'grey border' around it worked for me.
Adding an initial-scale value to the viewport metatag resolved this issue for me.
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0">
I had a similar problem when displaying a .png-image in a div-tag. A thin (1 px I think) black line was rendered on the side of the image. To fix it, I had to add the following CSS style: box-shadow: none;
