Afshar,

I know there is no setting ContentLangDirection in RichTextEditor by
default, what I meant is that it IS a configuration setting and you could
add it to RichTextEditor.dtl if you'd want to use it. Too bad that it does
not alleviate your problem.
Can you please verify for me - as my Arabic skills are not up to spec ;-)  -
if CKEditor v3, which is currently in the latest beta phase, does this
better? Here's a web demo:
http://ckeditor.com/ckeditor/3.0rc/_samples/skins.html

The idea is that the v3 release is better at RTL input, but I have no real
way to check.

Note that the name has changed from FCKeditor to CKeditor in this release
because FCK resembles a well-known four letter word...
