Capture iPad orientation change

This code demonstrates how to capture changes in screen orientation on iPad devices and apply different styles according to the orientation. The code is implemented by adding class names to HTML tags, similar to libraries such as Modernizr, and uses CSS3 media queries to achieve style switching.

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  // 捕获iPad设备方向变化
  function doOnOrientationChange() {
    switch (window.orientation) {
      case -90:
      case 90:
        // 横屏
        $('html').removeClass('portrait').addClass('landscape');
        break;
      default:
        // 竖屏
        $('html').removeClass('landscape').addClass('portrait');
        break;
    }
  }

  // 设置事件监听器
  window.addEventListener('orientationchange', doOnOrientationChange);

  // 初始调用
  doOnOrientationChange();
});

CSS style example:

/* 平板电脑样式 */
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px) {
  .portrait {
    /* 竖屏样式 */
  }
  .landscape {
    /* 横屏样式 */
  }
}
