All iPads TIP: Use Pinch Zoom on all sites ... twitter, etc.

[OSMac]

Many sites when viewed on the iPad using Safari block the use of pinch zoom.
Example twitter

https://mobile.twitter.com/barcastuff/tweets


Found a tip to allow zooming on all sites:
Tip that worked for me was the one beginning with Ugh.

Basically create a bookmark called AllowZoom with the following link:

javascript:document.querySelector('meta%5Bname=viewport%5D').setAttribute('content','width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=10.0,user-scalable=1');

After the site loads , press the link , then pinch zoom works.

Also some 3rd browsers like iCabMobile have a Always Allow Zooming setting.
