Noob question - O4W Mobile display (O4W)

I'm new to O4W mobile in OI 9.3.1.
I cut and pasted the O4W_M_REVELATION_COM example from the Reference Guide, pp269+
It runs up well, and when I run it in the desktop browser using Chrome it displays really nicely, adjusting the width automatically to suit the browser width.
When I run it on the iPhone it displays wider than the phone screen, so I need to scroll a long way to the right to see the right hand side of the page. It doesn't matter if I turn the phone around, I get the same issue.
Is there some command I need to include to limit or resize the display to the physical screen?
Thanks.
Matt Jones.

I should add that if I resize the phone browser to fit the physical screen, the text becomes too small to read easily.
What am I missing?

Hi, Matthew. I believe the key is that you need to have the following "meta" in your html header:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
If you're using the mobiledefaulttmpl.htm, then that should already be present in the HTML that's in the template; what template are you using?

Oh, be still my beating heart!!
I had just cut and paste the code out of the 931 Reference Guide (O4W_M_REVELATION_COM) pp 269+
In it, it has:
Case EVENT _EQC "CREATE"
* turn our "we're a mobile app" flag
o4wSetMobile(1)
* use our blank template
o4wform("blank")
* start a "page" of content, using theme "b"
O4WSectionStart("MainMenu", O4WMobileOptions("page", "b"))
So I just changed it to:
o4wform("mobiledefaulttmpl.htm")
and hey presto, it's beautiful.
Thank you Bryan - brilliant.
