UIScrollview content size when orientation changes

Question

I have a scrollview with pagination. In viewDidLoad i check if the current orientation is landscape then i set its contentsize's height 440

 if (UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait([[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation])) 
    {
        [scroll      setContentSize:CGSizeMake(self.scroll.frame.size.width*numberOfPages,340)];


    }
    else if (UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape([[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation]))

    {
        [scroll setFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,480,480)];
        [scroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake(self.scroll.frame.size.width*numberOfPages, 440)];


    }

everything works fine scrollview scrolls smoothy and there is no diagonal scrolling.

but when orientation changes,

i have to set scrollview's frame and contentsize again and i am setting it as follow

-(void)orientationChanged:(id)object
{
if(UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait([[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation]))
{
    self.scroll.frame = [[UIScreen mainScreen]bounds];

    [scroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake(self.scroll.frame.size.width*numberOfPages, 340)];
}


else
{
 self.scroll.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,480,480);
        [scroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake(self.scroll.frame.size.width*numberOfPages, 600)];
}


}

i cant understand why i have to set content size's height upto 600 in landscape mode, and that too isnt enough. and it adds one more problem that scrollview starts scrolling diagonally which i dont want as it looks so weird. Can anyone help me understanding where and what i am missing?

i have set scrollview's autoresizing mask as

[scroll setAutoresizingMask:UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin|UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin|UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight];

but changing it doesnt help.

Here it is a problem in your code. Why you are setting the frame size like this?? You have only the screen size of 320px width. And when it changes to landscape, height will be only 320px. But you are setting the scroll height as 480px and it goes out of the screen and start to scroll diagonally.

self.scroll.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,480,480);

Instead of that frame size, change like this

self.scroll.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,480,320);

And you need to set the content size depend on the content you are having inside the scroll view in either orientation.
