css.properties.writing-mode - sideways support for Edge not updated in compatibility table

[mohanad-80]

What type of issue is this?

Incorrect support data (example: BrowserX says "86" but support was added in "40")

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The compatibility table for the CSS writing-mode property does not reflect that the sideways value is now supported in Microsoft Edge. This information needs to be updated.

What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?

Chromium (Chrome, Edge 79+, Opera, Samsung Internet)

What did you expect to see?

I expected the compatibility table for the CSS writing-mode property to show that the sideways value is supported in Microsoft Edge.

Did you test this? If so, how?

The screenshot below shows the writing-mode: sideways-lr property applied in Microsoft Edge version 132.0.2957.115 (Official build) (64-bit). As you can see, the text (on the right) is correctly rotated and flows sideways, confirming support for this property.

Current version is: 132.0.2957.115 (Official build) (64-bit)

Thanks for your report!

Edge 132 was just released on Friday and I just merged #25711 which sets the 132 Edge release to the current release. browser-compat-data will release tomorrow and so MDN will be updated tomorrow.

Closing this issue now, as it has been resolved. Thanks for your work on this!
