The figures I'm giving you are from one of the two biggest portals in
Israel.
it's less than 3%.
I'm not sure about Opera, if you are developing for an Israeli
audience, you can simply develop for IE 4.x and up.
anyone with any other browser can go and get IE :)

Subject: RE: [PHP] Hebrew websites transition with php3 ..
Hey!
Thank you for the quick reply.
I do have some questions regarding your answer.
From what I know and have seen so far, there are more than just 3%
Internet users in Israel which use Netscape 4.x (I use it myself...).
Are you sure that I should just ignore these people, and just use logical
Hebrew?
Also, quite a lot of people started using Opera lately.. (ain't speaking
about Israeli users).
Does Opera supports Logical Hebrew? If so, from which version?
Best Regards -
