Thank you for posting the address of a demo page. The situation looks much clearer now. Looking at the page on IE 7 and FF 2 on Windows XP SP 2, I see the title bar of the window presenting the text correctly, as in the document's content. There's just the problem of truncation that I discussed in my previous reply (where I unfortunately confused left with right; the point is that the truncation indicator "..." is on the _right_ as usual, but it should be on the _left_ for right-to-left text). Apparently the problem you observed is more serious: the entire writing direction is wrong. I think the problem is in the support for right to left writing in the _system_, somehow. This might be due to using some older version of Windows. Adding support to Arabic writing might help, though this would of course not solve the problem in web authoring - you cannot install additional support on your visitors' systems. I think there's nothing we can do about this in CSS. You might consider asking about this on some other forum, like news:comp.infosystems.www.authoring.misc where you can probably find people who know the problems of using Arabic letters on the web. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
