How do I turn off format autodection in Safari?

Always check out the original article at http://www.oraclequirks.com for latest comments, fixes and updates.

Your Apex mobile page looks weird because Safari is formatting automatically certain strings containing numbers mistaking them for telephone numbers?
You just need to add a meta tag in the head section of the HTML page (either in the header attribute of the relevant pages or at the template level, whichever you prefer).

 <meta name="format-detection" content="telephone=no" />  

It's that simple.
