No joke.
What you are thinking of is the page media "size" property and its
"landscape" and "portrait" values.
They were around in CSS 2 but were dropped in CSS 2.1. They are
re-introduced in CSS 3 but nobody actually supports them. IE is unlikely to
support them for a long time, as it still doesn't support even CSS 2.1
properly.
No support === not usable so instructing the user is the next best thing.
Google groups for <css size landscape> and settle down for a good read :-)
