Re: 實作豎排文字/排版(Fwd: Implementing vertical text/layout support)

Peng先生所說的日本網站,及台灣模仿都是哪些,可否介紹一下,我想這對大家都有借鑒意義。
我知道一個"竹取web JS版"可以改為直書。
中文方面的開發,我感覺中國人自己確實貢獻很少,很多都是西方人開發。日本、台灣感覺還好些,我們大陸這邊真未感覺到誰要解決這些問題。對傳統的割裂態度,在技術上必然如此結果。

直書好像在webkit已經實現了(日本人做的),這樣將來chrome也能支持。現在Mozilla也打算做,真是好消息。

缺字問題同樣的中文信息化裡的問題,古籍、佛經等都有很多字不能顯示。我個人覺得只有動態組字,才能真正解決此問題,否則unicode再如何加字,也是有限的。不過在現階段,在Web應用上,不知道利用Google的web
font是否可以解決缺字的問題。也只是我個人的一點想法。

可嘆現今中國就是像我這樣有想法的人多,踏實肯幹的人少。
