-moz-orient

Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

The -moz-orient CSS property specifies the orientation of the element to which it's applied.

Syntax

The -moz-orient property is specified as one of the keyword values chosen from the list below.

Values

inline: The element is rendered in the same direction as the axis of the text: horizontally for horizontal writing modes, vertically for vertical writing modes.
block: The element is rendered orthogonally to the axis of the text: vertically for horizontal writing modes, horizontal for vertical writing modes.
horizontal: The element is rendered horizontally.
vertical: The element is rendered vertically.

Formal definition

Initial value	`inline`
Applies to	any element; it has an effect on `progress` and `meter`, but not on <input type="range"> or other elements
Inherited	no
Computed value	as specified
Animation type	discrete

Formal syntax

Examples

HTML

<p>
  The following progress meter 
  is horizontal (the default):
</p>
<progress max="100" value="75"></progress>

<p>
 The following progress meter
 is vertical:
</p>
<progress class="vert" max="100" value="75"></progress>
