<p><ins>Calculation of the shrink-to-fit width is similar to calculating
the width of a table cell using the automatic table layout algorithm.
Roughly: calculate the preferred width by formatting the content
without breaking lines other than where explicit line breaks occur,
and also calculate the preferred</ins> <em><ins>minimum</ins></em> <ins>width, e.g., by
trying all possible line breaks. CSS 2.1 does not define the
exact algorithm. Thirdly, calculate the</ins> <em><ins>available width</ins></em><ins>: this
is found by solving for 'width' after setting 'left' (in case 1) or
'right' (in case 3) to 0.</ins></p>
<p><ins>Then the shrink-to-fit width is: min(max(preferred minimum width, available
width), preferred width).</ins></p>
