Sharing videos happens all the time now, especially from mobile phones, and sometimes they are “posterior around visage”, if you know what we mean. Never fear, CSS3 rotation is here!

The video involved here came to me as an email, which you can see, also with QuickTime Player Video Rotation for YouTube Tutorial as shown below. Along the way, in this tutorial, took a walk down a garden path … aren’t the petunias great this time of year … but we digress … we, at one stage Shared the video to Google Drive, and wanted to show you bit of the brilliance in software integration (and how you can help it along (or you can see those “third party” app tools too, later, should you wish)) … anyway … did …

  • blow your “right hand” mind (but notice how the video is the right way up) with a live run … as long as you aren’t using Internet Explorer that is

On the 90 degree rotated div parenting (wrapping) the iframe the way the Play wording and Play button facing down happens and the positioning of the Controls happens will/might/could blow your mind … but who doesn’t need their mind blown every now and then.

Anyway, these CSS rotation ideas are very interesting, & you can review the HTML gist …

div {
-moz-transform: rotate(90deg);
-o-transform: rotate(90deg);
