Answer 1

It's not directly supported, but this thread has a workaround/solution.

Answer 2

i think you should be able to manipulate the viewport using the safari meta tags

http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/documentation/appleapplications/reference/safarihtmlref/Articles/MetaTags.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008193-SW6

For example, to set the viewport width to the width of the device, add this to your HTML file:

<meta name = "viewport" content = "width = device-width">

To set the initial scale to 1.0, add this to your HTML file:

<meta name = "viewport" content = "initial-scale = 1.0">

To set the initial scale and to turn off user scaling, add this to your HTML file:

<meta name = "viewport" content = "initial-scale = 2.3, user-scalable = no">
