Flash Player 9 doesn't support bi-di languages (Arabic is actually bidirectional, not just right to left). Flash Player 10, which I believe is in Beta now, will have support for bi-di languages like Arabic, Farsi, and Hebrew. It is possible to do bi-di in FP 9, but it takes a lot of code and ingenuity. I know an Israeli woman in Dublin who has done it--she's on this list, and Flash_Tiger, so she may chime in. I don't know the details, but I know it involved several individual text fields. Also, I think it was output only, not input. Interestingly, there is a company in the UK that has written a bi-di input system in Director. I haven't seen their code, but I know one of the programmers, and he's a whiz. It's not easy, but it can be done. Or, depending on your time frame, it might be worth writing to the FP10 beta. It might be out of beta by the time you're done--I've heard October.

Can the list recommend any good guides or other info resources regarding handling of Arabic text and other right to left text in Flash (player 9) in general?

try to use notepad by the way, even it's reversed it will work fine. -- Ibrahim On Fri, Aug 29, 2008 at 1:46 PM, david costard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi list, > > We are having trouble to create XML files containing Arabic text.

[Flashcoders] Arabic Text Problem
Hi list, We are having trouble to create XML files containing Arabic text. When we copy and paste the text from Word or Excel (Arabic is displayed correctly in theses software), the text appears reversed in the XML editor. Is there a way to write XML file with Arabic language on a European OS.
