[Laszlo-dev] OpenLaszlo & text - annotating Hanzi or Kanjis in East Asian languages with the <ruby> tag

[Raju Bitter]

Henry,

This might be interesting for you as well, if you are looking into improved text components.

I just ran into the <ruby> tag in HTML 5: http://webkit.org/blog/948/ruby-rendering-in-webkit/
 "A ruby annotation is a short piece of text in smaller font, written directly above or below or – with vertical text – to either side of the base text. It is most often used in East Asian typography in order to provide further information. Most commonly it shows the pronounciation of Chinese characters."
