Responsive to calculating a vertical height of the inner container, assigning a maximum height value and a minimum height value to the inner container. The method modifies dimensions of the inner container to a minimum height for the web browser to present the data of the webpage, based on the assigned maximum height value and minimum height value of the inner container.
