[thelist] Vertical Text

[Salvatore Palmisano]

I was able to get this looking as expected on the screen, but when printed
it goes funky.
Here's the example:

http://www.palmisanonet.com/test.asp

On the screen it looks as it should, with the first letter of the first word
at the bottom of the cell, and the bgcolor is black.
Do a print preview and you'll see a completely different format...The text
is rotated 180 degrees and the bgcolor is omitted.
(I did set the css reference to "all").

Any idea what I did wrong?

huh?  don't see no vertical text on that page

salvatore, i don't think you can do it with html or css

here's a post on the w3c discussion list which talked about it but i don't
think it ever got implemented, you can run a search on the w3 site and it
comes up empty as far as "rotate" or "orient" is concerned, at least for
text (lots of SVG reverences, though) --
