"The auto keyword, which maps to the auto state

Indicates that the contents of the element are explicitly embedded text, but
that the direction is to be determined programmatically using the contents of
the element (as described below).

Note: The heuristic used by this state is very crude (it just looks at the
first character with a strong directionality, in a manner analogous to the
Paragraph Level determination in the bidirectional algorithm). Authors are
urged to only use this value as a last resort when the direction of the text is
truly unknown and no better server-side heuristic can be applied. [BIDI]"



Offhand I don't see any problems in Firefox 17 nightly or in Chrome 21 on my
watchlist. Can you provide a screenshot?
