iOS 7 iPad Safari Landscape innerHeight/outerHeight layout issue

Question

We\'re seeing issues with a web app that has a height of 100% on Safari in iOS 7. It appears that the window.innerHeight (672px) doesn\'t match window.outerHeight (692px), b

Answer 1

Samuel's answer is the best although it breaks if a user adds the page to their home screen (home screen pages don't exhibit the bug). Check the innerHeight before adding the class like so:

if (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPad;.*CPU.*OS 7_\d/i)) {
    if(window.innerHeight==672){
        $('html').addClass('ipad ios7');
    }
}

Note that the bug also does not exhibit under webview.
