Website is displaying a white space on right side of screen in iPhone

I am having a problem on http://eiglaw.com -- an approximately 25px wide white space/border is showing on the right side of the screen on iPhone. I researched the problem on stackoverflow and these posts are relevant but when I tried the various solutions offered I have not been able to fix the problem:

Responsive website on iPhone - unwanted white space on rotate from landscape to portrait

Website body background rendering a right white margin in iPhone Safari

White space on right side of header on zoom

I had a similar problem on iPad but was able to fix it with this media query:

@media only screen 
and (min-device-width : 768px) 
and (max-device-width : 1024px) 
/*and (orientation : landscape)*/ {
html,
body {
width:1000px; 
}
}

I have tried various media queries targeting the html and body elements with no luck. I have looked through the entire CSS file for problems with background images, margins, padding, overflows, etc., but am really stumped. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?

Many thanks!

iOS is trash and the only way to find a solution to why half your screen goes white and you keep scrolling into it is becoming a friggin programmer apparently.

Use the following styles:

body{
  overflow-x: hidden !important;
}

this will remove the overflow on the both side of the screen i.e extra white space on the screen

This worked a treat Tigran.

I just added a global class at the top of my stylesheet:

div {
  box-sizing: border-box;
  }

Cheers!

Try this

iPhone 5 - Landscape

@media only screen and (min-device-width : 320px) and (max-device-width : 568px) and (orientation : landscape) { }

iPhone 5 - Portrait

@media only screen and (min-device-width : 320px) and (max-device-width : 568px) and (orientation : portrait) { }

iPhone 4

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5), only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5) { }

The trouble is in your <h3 class="menu-toggle">Menu</h3> (why h3, btw?), which appears to be wider than a viewport because of having width: 100% + some padding.

Try setting a box-sizing: border-box; to that element.
