How to set viewport meta for iPhone that handles rotation properly?

Was just trying to work this out myself, and the solution I came up with was:

<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale = 1.0,maximum-scale = 1.0" />

This seems to lock the device into 1.0 scale regardless of it's orientation. As a side effect, it does however completely disable user scaling (pinch zooming, etc).

For anybody still interested:

http://wiki.phonegap.com/w/page/16494815/Preventing-Scrolling-on-iPhone-Phonegap-Applications

From the page:

<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no,width=device-width" />

This instructs Safari to prevent the user from zooming into the page with the "pinch" gesture and fixes the width of the view port to the width of the screen, which ever orientation the iPhone is in.

You don't want to lose the user scaling option if you can help it. I like this JS solution from here.

<script type="text/javascript">
(function(doc) {

    var addEvent = 'addEventListener',
        type = 'gesturestart',
        qsa = 'querySelectorAll',
        scales = [1, 1],
        meta = qsa in doc ? doc[qsa]('meta[name=viewport]') : [];

    function fix() {
        meta.content = 'width=device-width,minimum-scale=' + scales[0] + ',maximum-scale=' + scales[1];
        doc.removeEventListener(type, fix, true);
    }

    if ((meta = meta[meta.length - 1]) && addEvent in doc) {
        fix();
        scales = [.25, 1.6];
        doc[addEvent](type, fix, true);
    }

}(document));
</script>
