    Is there a standard way to create vertical text in CSS?

    Like something that's rotated?

    I think it was being discussed for CSS3 or something but I don't think there's any way to do it otherwise right now.

    Spooky - What do you mean by vertical text?

    I have to turn my head to read it (down-to-up), or the first letter is on top and the subsequent letters travel down rather than left-to-right?

    Create an image in PS using the vertical type tool .. or, just type it out and do the 'ol Cmd-T / Ctr-T and flip that mutha'. Looks like it's system font Trebuchet MS being used.

    Yes, it was created in photoshop, and yes, Trebuchet MS is the font.

    you could use svg but then you would have to get the site visitor to download a svg viewer

    more info about svg + html:

    It is not a wise idea to use SVG as a very limited number of browsers support it...
