Simple question - How do you change text direction??

I can't seem to find it anywhere in Frontpage 2003. Just
wanna change the direction of the text from horizontal to
vertical, I'm sure it's very simple to do! Thanks for
any help.

Hi,
it isn't simple to do - this is the closest an IE only property
..myClass{
layout-flow: vertical-ideographic;
}
<p class="myClass">see how this looks - it's vertical but probably not what
you want!</p>
I'd make the text into a graphic - this way at least you'll get
cross-browser support

Can you elaborate for a novice Frontpage user? I'd like to type a series of names in a box and have them scroll vertically, stop for a few seconds for readers to read, and then the text continues scrolling downwards (vertically). It's a simple set up to do this horizontally marquee style, so I would think it would be just as simple to have text move vertically. Can you help? Thanks!

you're looking for a JavaScript. check the usual suspects:
www.dynamicdrive.com and www.javascript.internet.com I've also had some luck
with www.javascript-2.com
I've seen one that does what you want in flash at www.scriptocean.com
