My issue with Safari and the iPhone

[elgrecomac]

My eyesight is not great. From time to time i use my iphone 4 while not wearing my reading glasses. My issue: web sites like yahoo, mac rumors, etc have a iphone-friendly format of their sites to fit a lot of content in a limited landscape. I get it. But what I don't get is why I can not use the pinch and expand gestures on these sites so that I can expand the text size so that I can read the damned pages that are rendered like on other sites.

Is there a remedy for this issue?

yes.

wear your reading glasses.

you can also turn on "Zoom" in the accessibility settings. this allows for pinch and zoom to work anywhere in the OS, especially for the hard of sight.
