CSS to create 'mirrored' text?

Hi! I'm after a method to make text a mirror image of itself? My personal logo is typographic, with a web-friendly font, but contains a reversed character. I want to be able to generate my logo on the web with just html/css, instead of using images.

I don't know if it's possible, but any help would be appreciated!

I think this may be what you're after:

<p>Your logo text</p>
<p class="mirror">Your logo text</p>

.mirror{
  display: inline-block;
  transform: scaleX(-1); 
  filter: FlipH; /* IE 6-7-8 */
}

Let me know if you need anymore help, Regards
