    <p>I have a webpage that I'm trying to display on my Android device (loaded from the assets directory of the project) using PhoneGap (which uses a normal WebView set as the "appview"), but the webview completely ignores the following:</p> <pre><code>&lt;meta name = "viewport" content = "user-scalable=no,width=device-width" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>No matter what I set in this line (I've tried explicitly setting the zoom, setting the width/height in pixels, etc.), the device completely ignores it and renders the website very small and anchored to the upper left-hand corner of the screen. I can zoom in using the pinch gesture (even if I explicitly disable zoom in the html code above), but I want the page to be zoomed-in to properly fit the device on load. </p> <p>Here's the interesting bit... If I put the exact same site on my web server and navigate to it using the default browser on my test device, the page loads properly (scaled to the right size for the device). </p> <p>Please help.</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p><strong>EDIT1:</strong></p> <p>My current settings are:</p> <pre><code>&lt;meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,height=device-height,user-scalable=no,target-densitydpi=device-dpi,initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>That too is completely ignored.</p> <p><strong>EDIT2:</strong></p> <p>Here's something interesting...</p> <pre><code>&lt;meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=2.0, maximum-scale=2.0, user-scalable=no" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>The above line scales the page to 2x in the emulator yet changes nothing on my device (Samsung Epic running 2.2.1). Still though, even at 2x, the page is not being scaled to the emulator's width... I'd have to set that to something like "initial-scale=2.5".</p>

    1. COdoes adding the initial-scale=1 change anything?

    2. COHi. my current settings are: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,height=device-height,user-scalable=no,target-densitydpi=device-dpi,initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0" /> ... This does nothing. It's completely ignored.Thanks

    3. COYou might want to look over my so post here: http://goo.gl/P1nK3, which also points to a defect I filed. It's likely not that they are being ignored, but that the values are conflicting and being dropped. I have lots of results on various permutations of the parameters. You might find something useful. :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
