Rotate webpage via code?

Question

Here’s another solution based on the matrix filter which works in IE.

The css for -30 degrees would be:

.rotate
{
  -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix(M11=0.86602540, M12=0.50000000, M21=-0.50000000, M22=0.86602540,sizingMethod='auto expand')";
  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix(M11=0.86602540, M12=0.50000000, M21=-0.50000000, M22=0.86602540,sizingMethod='auto expand');
  -moz-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
  -webkit-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
  -o-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
}

Test page example:

<html>
  <head>
    <style type="text/css" media="screen">
    body {
      -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix(M11=0.86602540, M12=0.50000000, M21=-0.50000000, M22=0.86602540,sizingMethod='auto expand')";
      filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Matrix(M11=0.86602540, M12=0.50000000, M21=-0.50000000, M22=0.86602540,sizingMethod='auto expand');
      -moz-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
      -webkit-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
      -o-transform:  matrix(0.86602540, -0.50000000, 0.50000000, 0.86602540, 0, 0);
    }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <p>Testing</p>
    <p><a href="http://www.boogdesign.com/examples/transforms/matrix-calculator.html">Matrix calculator here</a></p>
  </body>
</html>
