Portrait mode only

in jQuery Mobile • 2 years ago

Is there a way to let people only use portraitmode? When they are rotating their screens to landscape, the site/app should still be displayed in portraitmode instead of landscape.

Are there any possibilities to do this?

don't have any device to test atm ...sry

but perhaps

$(window).resize( function(e){
e.preventDefault();
});

works?

Unfortunately, this won't prevent the browser from rotating the page. Currently, there's no way to tell the browser to turn off auto-rotation -> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1207008/how-do-i-lock-the-orientation-to-portrait-mode-in-a-iphone-web-application

If you are working on an iOS environment, I have some code in order to do that, when I reach to my home pc, I'll reply to this with the code ;)
