#max-height

Defines the maximum height the element can be.

default max-height: none;

The element has no limit in terms of height.

max-height: 2000px;

You can use numeric values like pixels, (r)em, percentages...

If the maximum height is larger than the element's actual height, the max height has no effect.

max-height: 100px;

If the content does not fit within the maximum height, it will overflow. How the container will handle this overflowing content is defined by the overflow property.
