I too would like to know how to do this in that I hate this feature. Trying to read something and swiping left and right just interrupt what you are doing because you bed up leaving the page. One thing I hated about Google chrome which I woulda used as my default browse had it not been for that annoying feature. Now safari adopted it and I hate it. I can't seem to find a way to disable it. If you can't, is there another browser in App Store that doesn't do that. I know there is opera mini browser out there, but it is a simple browser that disables some scripts, so I don't want that either. Help!
