Question

Vertical Text in Firefox

Is there a way to display vertical text in Firefox? I can do it with CSS3 in IE, but not in FF.

Is there a way to generate a dynamic image containing the text, and then reference it with <img src=vertText.cfm?text=myText...
?

I know this can be done in PHP, but how would one approach this problem in ColdFusion?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

    with CF8 you could create a cfc which would accept text as an argument
    and using cf's new image manipulation tags and functions create the
    image on the fly for you and output it to the browser

    with prior cf versions it is probably still possible, but trickier since
    there are no built-in image manupulation so one has to use 3rd party
    image tools...

    Thank you for the tip. I will definitely pursue this since I am using Coldfusion 8.
