[support] Problems with iPad

[Philip_Wetzel at nhd.uscourts.gov]

Thanks Jamie,

Got a couple of clues out of that.  I don't know if it is iPad specific.
However, the other browsers (on my desktop) behave differently when resized
smaller.

The thing I just noticed about the iPad is that it is zoomed in too far.
Also, it is not centered.    It is centered with all the browsers on my
desktop.

It works pretty well with Firefox in mobile mode.  Stays centered as well
as it can down to where it starts cropping from the right.  Which is fine.
The iPad will crop on all 4 sides as you zoom.   That would be OK if it
was centered.

It's starting sound like the real question is why isn't it centered, or
how can I make it centered.
Back to Google.

Thanks again,
Phil

Are you sure it's only the iPad, or is it any smaller screen? The
easiest test is to resize your browser down to a smaller width and see
if it acts up. If you're using Firefox, you can hit ctrl-shift-m to go
to a mobile simulation mode.
