Thanks for your answer.
Actually i don't even want to display a whole text in columns from top to
bottom and right to left, it's only one column.
Within an online dictionary i want to display the original Japanese word in
a vertical column in the left, and to the right there shall be the
readings, translation and descriptions. So i want it to be written
vertically also for practical reasons.
Usually i could achieve this effect by putting a <br> tag between every
character. Now here's the problem: I'm working with PHP, which is not (yet)
UTF-8 compatible. Thus, i cannot simply split every byte (character) as i
could do with Western language strings, since Japanese characters can be 2
to 6 bytes long. That's why i hoped to find a HTML solution to this.
