Detect iPhone/iPad purely by css
css, ipad, iphone
Solution
This is how I handle iPhone (and similar) devices [not iPad]:
In my CSS file:
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px), only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {
/* CSS overrides for mobile here */
}
In the head of my HTML document:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1,user-scalable=no">
Problem
I've been trying to detect an iPhone or iPad purely by stylesheet. I tried the solution provided here by using @media handheld, only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {. However, this doesnt seem to work. Any ideas?
