In essence, an iPhone 5 screen will be treated as 320 x 576. However, the ACTUAL amount of pixels is 640 x 1152.
So a line that is styled as being 160 pixels wide will be taking up half of the width of the screen, but it will be drawn using 320 actual pixels.
Anything you do in the CSS, will be treated as if the screen is 320 x 576, and not the actual 640 x 1152.
