What about using WHITE-SPACE: PRE ? If you combine it with
LINE-HEIGHT it should do what you want and look nice.

If I wanted to have a table with one of the column headers consisting of
a very long name how might I create them to be angled? Some of the
different options that Google has turned up so far include
- creating a picture of the angled text and positioning it on the screen
so that it looks like the column header
- creating the angled text column header using VML - Vector Markup
Language [though I don't see an example anywhere it looks as if it is
supported. I have never used VML].
- CSS3 appears to support it
- use a JavaScript function that would put each letter down and to the
right of the previous letter to create something that looked like:
T
H
I
S
While it isn't exactly "angled text" it achieves the same effect of
saving space.
Has anyone done something like this or have any thoughts or suggestions
on it?
