Abstract: A method and system to automatically adjust content being layed out into a target area for browser rendering is provided. An example method comprises a first pass module, a progress data collector, a second pass module, and a communications module. The first pass module may be configured to perform a first pass of laying out source content into a total target area to determine a total crash area consumed by the source content. The progress data collector may be configured to collect progress data associated with the laying out of the source content into the total target area. The second pass module may be configured to perform a second pass of laying out of the source content into the total target area to generate a data object model. The communications module may be configured to provide the data object model to a browser engine for rendering.
