copied!<p>Updated this answer with recent information (from <a href="http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/text-rotation/" rel="noreferrer">CSS Tricks</a>). Kudos to Matt and Douglas for pointing out the filter implementation.</p> <pre><code>.rotate { -webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg); -moz-transform: rotate(-90deg); -ms-transform: rotate(-90deg); -o-transform: rotate(-90deg); transform: rotate(-90deg); /* also accepts left, right, top, bottom coordinates; not required, but a good idea for styling */ -webkit-transform-origin: 50% 50%; -moz-transform-origin: 50% 50%; -ms-transform-origin: 50% 50%; -o-transform-origin: 50% 50%; transform-origin: 50% 50%; /* Should be unset in IE9+ I think. */ filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3); } </code></pre> <p><strong>Old answer:</strong></p> <p>For FF 3.5 or Safari/Webkit 3.1, check out: <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/-moz-transform" rel="noreferrer">-moz-transform</a> (and -webkit-transform). IE has a <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533014%28VS.85%29.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Matrix filter</a>(v5.5+), but I'm not certain how to use it. Opera has no transformation capabilities yet.</p> <pre><code>.rot-neg-90 { /* rotate -90 deg, not sure if a negative number is supported so I used 270 */ -moz-transform: rotate(270deg); -moz-transform-origin: 50% 50%; -webkit-transform: rotate(270deg); -webkit-transform-origin: 50% 50%; /* IE support too convoluted for the time I've got on my hands... */ } </code></pre>
