FW: Vertical text

Hi everyone,

I'd asked Richard Ishida about the existence of mixed vertical & horizontal text on the web, he had a couple of examples.

We went down the route of allowing for multi-directional text anyway, but just for people's info at this stage, and in case we get similar comments again.

Cheers,

-Alastair
