With Firefox 1.5 having at least partial support of [css3-multicol], I wrote some tests of the effect in relation to the vertical writing of Japanese, or 'tategaki'. These rules took care of most of the requirements: [-moz-]column-width: 1em; [-moz-]column-gap: 1.5em; direction: rtl; as shown at http://www.sudrien.net/projects/tategaki.html Justification within a column shouldn't be any trouble in a full implementation, but http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-css3-text-20050627/#word-break does not seem to have any options to break up 'double' kana and foreign words to force the one-character column width. Is this even the correct method? http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/CR-css3-text-20030514/#writing-mode seems to have no equivelent in the latest draft. -SudrienReceived on Friday, 3 February 2006 14:35:18 GMT
