Thanks for everyone's comments. Lots of good information.

I know the physical size of the display (1024x768) and that the Safari
browser makes it easy to navigate and view web pages bigger than the
display area.

What I'm struggling to find is the approximate size of the region on the
display where a physical web page actually gets displayed. In other
words, the 1024x768 dimensions minus the height and width of all the
iPad OS display areas and minus the Safari browser's borders, titlebar,
menubar, toolbars, statusbars, scrollbars, and any other widget on the
iPad that takes up space on the screen.

The reason I want to know the approximate size of the actual HTML
display area is so we can design a web application that optimizes this
space in both portrait and landscape modes without the need to display
scrollbars. The actual layouts will be liquid, but I need to know what
my approximate minimum dimensions are before we start to design our
pages.

I've had zero success googling this answer.

Thanks again for everyone's help.

Malcolm
