| I have a strange request but maybe someone here might know - Would anyone

will invert the page, images and text to be displayed from bottom to top.
Strange request I know, but as a computer programmer and web designer I was
just wondering if it was possible and if anyone had done it before?

Perhaps he doesn't understand the concept of ng's and is expecting an
email reply?

Make a screenshot of your page, cut the edges out (your browser etc), then
flip and mirror it with a paint program, decrese colors to 16 (4-bit) and
save it as a gif file.
Then use a image map to make your links work.

That's in the AWW helpdesk faq in the payment options section just after the
notes on sexual favours, bribary and blackmail.
"Failure to provide valid credit card details will result in your request
being routed to the bit-bucket, your soul will be condemned to an eternity
of call centre hell and your body is pledged to the gratification of every
sordid whim imaginable - and a few more besides."
