My website looks great on iPhone but zoomed in on Android. I’ve got the standard device width code in the header (and I’ve used this for all websites I’ve done and they look fine) but for some reason this isn’t working on Android and the website seems to be majorly zoomed in.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

I want it to look like the way it does on iPhone. So when it loads you can see the whole width.

    Try setting the width to the actual width of your site, rather than the device with.

    For example:

    <meta name="viewport" content="width=980">
    

    Also, I’d suggest getting a good book on HTML/CSS and working your way through.

    Edit: O’Reilly’s ‘Head First’ HTML & CSS is extremely easy to follow, but will also give you a solid foundation.
