I just got an html5 app with code that needs to be deployed to an iphone but the sizing seems to be totally messed up (it's like 4 times of the entire screen). As I have very little experience with html5 I'd like to ask, is there something else that needs to be set for the page to correctly fit onto a screen besides adding the
<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no, width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0"/>
line in the index.html file?

Mobile Safari is making some fonts bigger when I am rotating the phone.
That's is driving me crazy and I can't get rid of this behavior.
Read about -webkit-text-adjust-size and tried it with all possible combinations but it doesn't seem to work. Is there anything new added in iOS9?
Have you tried the META Viewport tag?
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
I am working on a website: www.sc1.online-folio.com
for mobile and tablet devices I want to show this site 100 zoomed out (or maybe a little more) so user can see full site at first glance and zoom in the area he wants to view.
I am using this meta tag to zoom out
<meta name="viewport" content="width=1100" initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0" />
I set the width 1100 so the website look a little zoomed out for better viewing of slider area. This is all working fine on android devices but on ipad and iphone the site is zoomed like this: http://www.responsimulator.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsc1.online-folio.com%2F and no changes in meta properties are working.
So guys can you tell me what exactly I do to control the zooming on iphone and ipad devices.
You have written the attribute incorrectly, replace the quote after width with a comma.
So that:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=1100" initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0" />
Becomes:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=1100, initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0" />
But to answer your question, viewport is the thing!
I have one issue regarding ipad design i use one slider in to that when i turns mode portrate to landscape then it is not taking width of landscape

Use proper meta tags in your header. Try this.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
Quick question, as I think this should be very simple for those who know how it works (HTML5 app building is new to me).
I'm using Phonegap to build an app, problem however is that the default built from phonegap is portrait orientated. Atleast, that's what it seems. When I test the app on my ipad the width is adjusted fine, bu the height for some reason is bigger then the actual content of the body. I narrowed it down to this line:
When I remove height=device-height it works fine. With other words, I'm getting the wrong height of the device there. When on landscape, do I need to switch to height=device-width or something? Because that seems kind a weird, I would expect my height to change based on the orientation.
I think the code below solves your problem. You need to use
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">.
and this structure
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.2.0/jquery.mobile-1.2.0.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.2.0/jquery.mobile-1.2.0.min.js">

<body>

to work with iOS screens have to make two views, one for landscape and one for portrait, measures ipad screen is 1024 × 768 pixels then I think you should handle them directly with numbers, or keep trying with the options PhoneGap gives
it's possible with jquery or metatag remove the automatic resize in my website when i visit it on ipad? Is there a way to preveni this action of safari ipad?
I've come across the metatag "viewport".
I use it to strictly define the size of mobile websites and prevent scaling.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
By changing the width I expect you can force your website to a given width on all devices.
By querying the device using Javascript navigator.useragent you can restrict this to just iPad.
if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad/i)) ...
