Well, not exactly control, I can't change the browser no matter how much I 
would like to, but I definitely can count on a homogenous browser field of IE6. 
 Which works!


Using the CSS properties - "filter: flipV;" and "writing-mode: tb-rl;" combined 
with a reversed font and spelling the labels backwards, "laoG" for example, I 
can now present these demanding users with there precious table labels that 
read bottom-top left-right!  At least in IE6 browsers.  Good gracious what I do 
for these people!

....Isaac,

....If you have control over installing a font, do you have control over
....what browsers will be used?
....
....Check out this page:

....
....It doesn't work on every browser, but where it does it looks like it
....can handle what you need.
