For example the iphone automatically adjusts text elements to a “more readable” size. This results in different font sizes on your website in mobile view. To avoid this problem you can simply add a single line in your css.

html {
-webkit-text-size-adjust: none;
}

This disables the automatic size adjustment on the iphone. Another common problem are flexible images on your responsive website. Often the images are displayed with a wrong width-to-height ratio when the browser only refers to a percentage width. An easy workaround, without complex javascript image managing, can solve the problem with css.

img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
width: auto\9; /* ie8 */
}

Note that this solution is not saving any data transfer because the full resolution of the image is always downloaded.
