I've fervently kept up with the thread in the hopes that it would also shed
light on a that I am having with a new site (our new company site).

http://new.hairydogdigital.com

It is a Joomla site that should display with alternate css depending upon
max-device-width for both tablet and smartphone. 

So far it works as expected with one strange hitch... and this is where I
thought this thread would help...

When loading on iPad the site loads as expected regardless of portrait or
landscape orientation. When switching from landscape to portait everything
adjusts properly. However, when switching from portrait to landscape the
site scales up for some reason that is beyond me, forcing the user to pinch
the display to fit. 

My guess is that this problem also occurs on iPhone/iPod Touch as well.

After following this thread, I thought it may be related to a slider that is
set to display:none at tablet and smartphone sizes. I tried switching to
visibility:hidden. That did not only NOT resolve the problem, it introduced
myriad others.

I found the following thread on Stack Overflow that addresses the problem:

ng-from-portrait-to-landcape

However, the one viable solution presented requires JavaScript. Has anyone
dealt with this without relying on JavaScript and in such a way that you do
not eliminate the ability for the user to pinch-zoom?
