I'm making a mobile version of my application support site and I have a little WebKit/iOS/HTML/CSS problem here...
I have a page, index.php, with mobile.css file attached. In my <head> tag I have:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no, max-scale=1.0" />
My body's css:
body {
font-family:"HelveticaNeue-Light","Helvetica Neue Light","Helvetica Neue","Helvetica","Lucida Grande",Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;
margin: 0;
background: url(../../images/textured_bg.png) repeat;
color:#454545;
font-size: 14px;
text-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5) 0 1px;
width:100%;
}
Everything works fine in portrait orientation, but when I rotate my iPhone to landscape, Safari scales my content so it looks like in portrait, but a little bigger:
My question: Is there a way, without making custom css for each orientation, to force Safari not to scale my content?

To disable pinch-zoom in HTML, simply add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" /> to the <head> section.
The viewport <meta> tag prevents the user from scaling This means that the URL in question contains a viewport <meta> tag with the attribute user-scalable set to '0' or 'no', which prevents the user from zooming in or zooming out.
The key part to fixing this isn't the meta viewport tag (though that's important, too, but for different reasons). Here's the magic that fixes the text size on orientation change.
html {
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;
}
(I got this from StackExchange's mobile CSS file.)
