I made a responsive website which works fine with different screen resolutions. I use three different media queries - from 0 to 640, from 640 to 960 and above. Anyway if I try to open on my Samsung Galaxy Note2 which uses 720x1280, since it has pixel ratio 2, it reads the website as 360x640 device, but with 640-960 styles.
How can I be sure that the website will be displayed in original resolution?
I included this in the header:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=720, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no" />
If I add something like this in my stylesheet file
@media (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2), (min-resolution: 192dpi) {
@viewport {
max-zoom:50%;
width:720px;
}
}
It works OK in Chrome's Emulation Mode, but not if I test it on the real mobile.
EDIT: Woo-hoo... I found a way to do that with JavaScript.
document.querySelector("meta[name=viewport]").setAttribute('content', 'width=device-width, initial-scale='+(1/window.devicePixelRatio)+', maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0');
It reads device pixel ratio and then sets the initial-scale
value.
maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"
is not recommended. It's just poor user experience. – Paulie_D
