HTML4.01 does not allow dir="ttb" http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/dirlang.html#h-8.2 HTML5 does not either. http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-dir-attribute I think that the design of HTML4.01 and HTML5 is sensible. "ttb" is a style issue, while "rtl" is a content issue. In other words, you cannot change the dir attribute from "rtl" to "ltr" without messing up the document, but changing from vertical writing to horizontal writing is very often possible. Cheers, Makoto
