Definitely add this to the head like others said:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0,
maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
I don't allow scalability because that is the issue and the user should
not have to scale in or out on anything. It should be rendered correctly at
100%. Just my opinion (and that of the w3c) and if you need zoom features,
there are other ways to do that. That shifting will be resolved if you add
the max-scale and if you still have issues, try the user-scalable = no.
Good luck.
