It turns out that my problem appears unrelated, however. If you can
view this page on an iPad in landscape and portrait mode, you'll see
the phenomenon:
<http://vze26m98.net/css-discuss/test-ipad.html>
The black-on-white text appears to preserve its thickness, while the
white-on-black type appears "thicker" in landscape than portrait.
I assume this is some phenomenon of the way that the iPad display
hardware works. Or it could be (LCD) displays in general, as I now
realize that the iPhone simulator doesn't rotate the display, it
rotates a frame around a simulated screen. Doh! ;-)
Odd also that I have a mockup on an iPhone 3G/iOS4 that doesn't seem
to have this problem.
If anyone had further comments about this, I'd be most appreciative.
Best wishes,
Charles
Charles:
I have confirmed your observation -- the text does indeed becomes
thicker. I suspect it is a problem with iPad and not something that
can be corrected via css.
I have one suggestion, however, if you want iPad owners to review a
page, how about giving us something easier to type? The url
"vze26m98.net/css-discuss/test-ipad.html" is a lot to type.
I prefer having a shorter URL -- if you want to see the shortest URL
possible for Mac's and iPads, contact me off list.
Cheers,
tedd
