Can I trigger a CSS event in mobile safari upon iphone orientation change?

I'm trying to figure out how to change an embedded web page when the user rotates their phone from portrait to landscape mode - basically to load a view that is better suited to the wider screen format. Is this possible to do without calling a new page from the server, i.e. to drive it from within CSS/Javascript itself?

Thanks!

You can use the window.orientation property. Its value is the degree that the current mode of view is used. Here is a brief example:

function updateOrientation()
{   
    var orientation=window.orientation;
    switch(orientation)
    {

        case 0:

                break;  

        case 90:
                break;

        case -90:   

                break;
    }

}

You can use this function on this event:

window.onorientationchange=updateOrientation;

Hope that helps!
