Abstract
An electronic device may have a display screen usable in at least two orientations, such as landscape orientation and portrait orientation.

A structured document such as as webpage is rendered (as a first rendered document) for display according to the document object model structure and optionally styles provided with the webpage. The same webpage is rendered (as a second rendered document) by removing or replacing selected objets in the document object model structure, or by applying different style directives than included in the originally received webpage.
