I thought about your message when i was reading this [1].

The problem is nearly the same as when you try to print something
that's displayed on the web. You would have to have different
resolutions of images inside themselfs that get pulled when you
request that page from device xy. Or you add different resollutions
for different devices by delivering them on demand with ex. javascript
device detection (some cms systems have basic detections built in).
But anyway: The problem will stay. You can't avoid zooming and you
can't always deliver the right result. Your code will always be just
like an recipe. Browser and user(settings) will be the cook. If you
want to deliver pages that look nearly the same across the different
devices, then try to remind your self of what the commonly used
browsers are missing (round corners, shadows, etc.) and try to design
with scaleable (tileable) graphics (backgrounds).
