Height doesn't properly work on IOS (iphone) - html

Question

I've created this website on codepen. While trying to make it responsive for all platforms I ran into a problem. It appears a single div covers the whole page (only on IOS) and not all heights are working properly (meaning nothing fits).
I've been at it for days and still have no clue, why all the heights and rules don't apply on IOS.
I've tried removing the video-section which reveals most of the page except the eind section which is just a blank white.
I've tried adding max-height which does reveal some of the other content, but it also seems as if the page can't get any taller on IOS so I'm still limited to a space to work with. Also it doesn't seem a proper solution.
I've tried changing the position but with no avail.
It just seems as if the heights don't properly work on IOS
Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening?
var $animation_elements = $('.animation-element');
var $window = $(window);
function check_if_in_view() {
var window_height = $window.height();
var window_top_position = $window.scrollTop();
var window_bottom_position = (window_top_position + window_height);
$.each($animation_elements, function() {
var $element = $(this);
var element_height = $element.outerHeight();
var element_top_position = $element.offset().top;
var element_bottom_position = (element_top_position + element_height);
//check to see if this current container is within viewport
if ((element_bottom_position >= window_top_position) &&
(element_top_position <= window_bottom_position)) {
$element.addClass('in-view');
} else {
$element.removeClass('in-view');
}
});
}
$window.on('scroll resize', check_if_in_view);
$window.trigger('scroll');

Answer 1

It's not matter of IOS, it's matter of responsiveness. You have set fixed height to each section so it is overlapping with each others on mobile devices.
Just set all section height to height: 100vh.
And
#media (max-width: 430px){
.introductie {
height: 300vh;
overflow: hidden;
}
}
It should works.

Answer 2

I've Found my answer.
It was a JS script that automaticly finds the height of the window and sets that height to a given class.
But, that wasn't the whole solution. The height's where better, and weren't all over the place as it was before when I applied height:100%; to the html, body and section.
I made media queries, on the max-height per phone size, so it was expand beyond the intended sections.
https://90c726a539a841eb97f1b7b3f2aaf646.codepen.website
The JS solution is:
// On document ready set the div height to window
$(document).ready(function(){
// Assign a variable for the application being used
var nVer = navigator.appVersion;
// Assign a variable for the device being used
var nAgt = navigator.userAgent;
var nameOffset,verOffset,ix;
// First check to see if the platform is an iPhone or iPod
if(navigator.platform == 'iPhone' || navigator.platform == 'iPod'){
// In Safari, the true version is after "Safari"
if ((verOffset=nAgt.indexOf('Safari'))!=-1) {
// Set a variable to use later
var mobileSafari = 'Safari';
}
}
//===== FULL HEIGHT =====\\
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.full-height').css('height',(($(window).height()) + 60)+'px');
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.full-height').css({'height':(($(window).height()))+'px'});
};
});
// On window resize run through the sizing again
$(window).resize(function(){
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.full-height').css('height',(($(window).height()) + 60)+'px');
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.full-height').css({'height':(($(window).height()))+'px'});
};
/* //===== HALF HEIGHT =====\\
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.half-height').css('min-height',(($(window).height() /2) + 60)+'px'/2);
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.half-height').css({'min-height':(($(window).height()/2) )+'px'});
};
// On window resize run through the sizing again
$(window).resize(function(){
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.half-height').css('min-height',(($(window).height()/ 2) + 60)+'px');
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.half-height').css({'min-height':(($(window).height()/ 2) )+'px'});
};
});
//===== DOUBLE HEIGHT =====\\
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.half-height').css('min-height',(($(window).height()* 2) + 60)+'px');
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.half-height').css({'min-height':(($(window).height()* 2) )+'px'});
};
});
// On window resize run through the sizing again
$(window).resize(function(){
// If is mobile Safari set window height +60
if (mobileSafari == 'Safari') {
// Height + 60px
$('.half-height').css('min-height',(($(window).height()* 2) + 60)+'px');
} else {
// Else use the default window height
$('.half-height').css({'min-height':(($(window).height()* 2) )+'px'});
};*/
});
And the CSS (used SCSS) solution is:
//IPHONE&SAMSUNG PLUS
#media (max-height: 736px) {
.full-height{
max-height:736px;
}
.introductie-mobile {
height: 1200px !important;
max-height: 1200px;
}
}
//IPHONE 6/7/8
#media (max-height: 667px) {
.full-height{
max-height:667px;
}
.introductie-mobile {
height: 1200px !important;
max-height: 1200px;
}
}
//IPHONE %
#media (max-height: 568px) {
.full-height{
max-height:568px;

Answer 3

The height of the top black <div class="video-section"> is full height on any device including iPhone. So height in and of itself is not the problem.
On other devices however, the position of the next <div class="sign-up-banner"> changes dynamically so that it moves with a parallax effect as you scroll down. Once you're fully past the top black <div class="video-section"> the entire second <div class="sign-up-banner"> is fully visible. This is being done with the javascript code. For whatever reason, this javascript is not running on the iPhone.
Some of the CSS applied to the <form> within the <div id="coming-soon"> is still applied which leaves you with the div stuck behind the first one.
You can reverse this with the following css:
.sign-up-banner{
position: static;
height: auto;
}
#mc_embed_signup form{
position: static !important;
-ms-transform: none; /* IE 9 */
-webkit-transform: none; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
transform: none;
}
You could wrap that in a media query so it only applies to a particular screen. To get it to apply for the iPhone.
#media only screen
and (min-device-width: 320px)
and (max-device-width: 568px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
//insert your css here
}
That will apply css to a iPhone 4 and 4s. It's not guaranteed to not apply to other devices, but css cannot target particular devices so it's the best we've got. You can see media queries which target other devices including other iPhone models at https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/media-queries-for-standard-devices/.
