I am just working on an interface that is used by mobile phones just to
enter some data. I wrote an Android app which uses a WebView to display
the site.

Since there are phones like the Samsung Note II with a display of 720 x
1280 pixels and a HTC Desire with a display of 480 x 800 it is difficult
to adjust the size of the controls.

I know how to align the form to the screen, but the question is, whether
or not it is possible to scale the controls, so that their sizes match
the available space.

Any ideas?

Thanks Uli

I'm going to be adding this in the next build (viewport meta tag).  That
will make sure that the mobile browser does not zoom the application out
initially, and that should help with this issue.  However, you're still
going to want to use/create a theme that uses a font size of around 18-24pts
or so, since that is the best size for mobile browsers.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.
