Users using an iPhone are unable to adjust the scale or scroll on this website

I find myself wondering what I might be overlooking in this situation

Here is the HTML code:

<head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
        <link rel="shortcut icon" href="../../nImg/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
        <title>Gran Melia</title>
        <meta name="Description" content="Gran Meliá">
        <meta name="Keywords" content="Gran Melia">
        <meta name="Language" content="es">
        <meta name="Robots" content="index,follow">
        <meta name="og:description" content="red" />
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"/>

        <link href="css/960.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
        <link href="css/css.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
        ...

        <script type="text/javascript">
            /*Background photos*/
            var photos = [
                "http://www.bancotravel.com/images/hoteles/M/MELIAPALACIOISORAALCALA/foto-hotel-23.jpg",
                "http://www.bancotravel.com/images/hoteles/M/MELIAPALACIOISORAALCALA/foto-hotel-24.jpg",
                "http://larivieramaya.es/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/sol-melia-prepara-el-lanzamiento-en-mexico-de-la-marca-paradisus-con-dos-hoteles-en-playa-del-carmen.jpg"
            ];
        </script>
    </head>

From my understanding, commenting out the lines related to (device-width) should prevent this issue, but I am feeling quite puzzled...

If this snippet of code doesn't provide enough context, you can visit the test website at

-UPDATE-

Even with the following viewport meta tag:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=0.5, user-scalable=1, minimum-scale=0.5, maximum-scale=2.0">

Answer №1

This is my preferred solution to the issue at hand. When setting the height of both body and html to 100%, it causes frustration for iPhones.

html, body {
    height: 100%;
}

Answer №2

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"> 

That's the issue at hand.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=1024">

This should provide a solution.

-edit-

Oops, it seems that website is not 1024 pixels. Perhaps experimenting with different values like 320 (iPhone width) could help.

-edit2-

Questioning the need to allow iPhone users to scale the website. If designed for the correct size, scaling may just be an inconvenience.
