For April Fools day, Youtube enabled you to view any page and video, totally upside down.
Pretty cute and clever, so I unapologetically stole their code and re-appropriated it as a jQuery plugin. As you can see, I have very valuable time. :-p

Are there values for sideways?
NICCAI,
Interesting idea but I don't see many available unicode values for sideways.
"Though it is likely the most practical (as opposed to artistic) form of text transformation, it is the least supported and is the most difficult to implement." — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_of_text#Sideways_text
Hey!
Is there a command to reset the text, too?
Because if I click it twice…. you know.
Cool work!
Haha, the YouTube thing is pretty cool. Anyways, as far as your upside down javascript file, i think that could be useful for someone with a website who wants to create a flip text generator. But for other people… who just want to flip their text upside down, I'd recommend you link to http://www.UpsideDownText.com/
