Is there a way to rotate an image?

Hi mate,
Not what you are looking for but the closest I can think of using html/css.
<head>
<style>
.rotate {
writing-mode: tb-rl;
filter: flipv fliph;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="rotate"><img src="image.gif"></div>
</body>
</html>
Hope this helps

Not on the client side, but who's to say there isn't a server side app that'll do it for you. Then, your client code can be clean and crisp, like fresh underpants, just back from the vet.

You can certainly do it server-side, say by using Perl and the GD library. Shouldn't be too complex either. Are you able to use CGI programs on your server?

Part of the original question was "without building a separate image file for each."

Here is something to help you along your way to rotate an image server side.
To use this function your server may need to have one of the following setup:
Windows Server: PHP_GD2.dll installed or enabled in the PHP.ini file.
Linux/UNIX: GD Library installed & enabled
