    On [my site](http://smellofpopcorn.com “Smell of Popcorn”) I’m having some problems with the `overflow-x` property.

    If I set the `body` to `hidden`, and the `html` I leave to `visible`, then the site looks great on my Macbook. However, on the iPad, the site is zoomed out all the way like it is not recognizing the `overflow-x: hidden` markup.

    So I tried putting the `html` to hidden, and it works fine on the iPad. But there’s a great big, ugly additional and unecessarly scrollbar always visible on the right when viewed on the laptop.

    What can I do to get the best of both worlds?

    Have you used the viewport metatag?

    I just tried that, and it works fine. Is there a way to “lock” it that way so viewers can’t zoom out?

    Thanks for the help.

    I see. Any suggestions on how to make the site look good without creating a headache for readers?
