I have a website based on jQuery Mobile.
I'm using the viewport tag to fit my site to screen size.
So far so good.
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
But the Problem is now, that I'm still able to scroll my whole site (the whole mobile safari browser) around the screen.
I tried to set
body {
overflow:hidden;
}
like described in other posts here. But it does not work for me. Anyone an idea how to fix that?
I had the same problem, and ended up using this workaround:
document.ontouchmove = function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
};
Well zooming and scrolling doesn't always have to be related. Your problem here is not with the viewport but with the actual width of your site, if the size is wider than the screen size you will have scrolling issues. You would have to give us a live example so we can help you to find the elements that are overflowing your layout
I compared your site with one of our own. You're using jQuery Mobile 1.0RC1 and we're using 1.0b3. The problem occurs with your site but not with ours.
Maybe try upgrading to the latest jQuery Mobile?
As Jasper pointed out, you have a 404 while trying to fetch these:

http://www.m.fdl.de/wp-content/themes/jquerymobile-FDL%202/js/jquery-1.6.2.min.js (jQuery Library)
You look like you have a space in a folder name "jquerymobile-FDL 2", I would rename this without the space.
Also I'm not sure if you can have a meta tag inside the title or style tags, maybe move all meta tags to the start pf your head tag?

Also you seem to be importing two different versions of jQuery
http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.5.2.min.js?ver=3.2.1

I have this page with a TinyMCE 5.10.4 Editor if I load the page at full desktop size, and then switch it to mobile sized, the text box appears as normal, I believe this is because while the screen is sized to a mobile device, TinyMCE recognizes it as a desktop screen.
However, if I load the page in mobile sizing it gives me a graybox that links to an external editor, and gives me this gross empty text area that has my background image behind it.
How do I get TinyMCE to always load desktop mode?
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but have you tried overriding the mobile settings to match your existing settings when initializing TinyMCE? This would ensure that even if TinyMCE loaded in mobile mode, it would still look like desktop mode. Something like this:
tinymce.init({
selector: 'myTextArea',
mobile: {
menubar: true,
toolbar_mode: "wrap"
}
});
The docs also specify that you should include the following <meta> tag in your HTML document's <head> to ensure it can detect the correct mode to use.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
Here is the reference in the TinyMCE v5 doc where I found this info:

I have an image gallery, the images are large enough to fill an iPhone screen.
The images are also links, so as you can imagine, scrolling becomes quite frustrating on the iPhone because you're constantly clicking links by accident.
Is there anyway to prevent this using css alone?
If not then what would be the most simple solution to this problem?
Thanks!
I would suggest to use the Javascript. However, I found a way using only CSS. First step, you will need to identify the client browser, just add the code below in your HEAD session in HTML file:
<link rel="stylesheet" media="only screen and (max-device-width: 480px)" href="../iphone.css" type="text/css" />
Only if client is using a browser in iphone, the content of "iphone.css" will be loaded.
In this file "iphone.css", you need create a class to disable the links:
.disableLink {
pointer-events: none;
cursor: default;
}
In your HTML code of gallery, add the references in your links:
IMAGE
These steps works only in iPhone/iPod touch, but if you look in my second reference, you will see the way to adapt for iPhone 4/iPod touch 4G:
I don’t think there’s a CSS-based solution (CSS isn’t really designed to change the behaviour of HTML elements).
You could use JavaScript on page load to check the width of the browser’s viewport, and then find and disable/remove the links if the viewport is phone-sized.
See PPK’s ‘A Tale of Two Viewports’ article to figure out which JavaScript properties to check to figure out the width in your situation (I haven’t done enough mobile development to remember off the top of my head).
I like the idea of pointer-events: none;, but I wouldn't use it because it isn't well-supported.
If we're defining a mobile device as just having a certain screen size, I would do something like this:
$(function () {
var mobile = ($(window).width() < 481);
$('#image-gallery').find('a').click(function (e) {
if (mobile)
e.preventDefault();
});
});
However, I would try to define 'mobile' as something else, e.g., a browser that supports touch events.

The text appears quite large at the bottom of the page when viewing it on my iPhone, and I'm really not sure why?
I definitely need to get this resolved as quickly as possible though as my client noticed - and doesn't like!
Thank you VERY much in advance to anyone who can shine some light on this!!
You probably need some meta tags and content that does not have to be a static size. This is an example of one of the many viewport/meta tags you can use in your <head></head> to make a website look good on an iPhone:
<meta name="viewport" content = "width = device-width, initial-scale = 2.3, minimum-scale = 1, maximum-scale = 5" />
But the best thing to do is to check out the Apple documentation:
Optimizing for Safari on iPhone
So my website sizes correctly on a laptop PC running Windows 7. Howevever, when run on a iPhone or iPad, a couple things happen. Here's a link to my site to see www.mazzoreporting.com
First, the video in the right column extends beyond the main content box. I don't want to change the width because it makes it smaller on laptop pcs. I believe there is some kind of code I can write in my CSS to fix this?
That's it for now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

you need to make an separate css and load it in case you detect an ipod/iphone/ipad/ other mobile device or better if you can do an excluve mobile version of you page
There is a "secret" HTML incantation that you need to add to the web page to get WebView to resize it. I think that it is:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,height=device-height, user-scalable=yes" />
(Within the <head> section.)
OK, I'm having some issues with my site's mobile stylesheet on the iphone. I reworked the stylesheet to be similar to what http://m.facebook.com give the browser, only I'm getting an issue where the Safari on iPhone browser is still zooming the page out from like 960px, instead of constraining it to the native screen resolution. What gives?
Do you think it has to do with my .container960 class on the body element? I tried reseting those styles with the mobile stylesheet, but maybe it's not reseting the container styles properly.
The site is http://beta.cureinternational.org. You'll need to use username Guest and password guest to view the page.
Have you tried adding a meta-tag like this?
<meta name = "viewport" content = "width = device-width">
Or hard-coding in the dimensions yourself (see Viewport in https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariHTMLRef/Articles/MetaTags.html)
