I've never understood why writing Hebrew or Arabic left-to-right is called "visual" order anyway. These are RTL scripts; they are supposed to be not only written, but also read, right-to-left. Wouldn't a reader of Hebrew or Arabic consider RTL to BE the "visual" order? -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California http://users.adelphia.net/~dewell/
