Re: bidi in mozilla (fwd)
some sort of "bidi" support was added at around M11, which totally screwed
up all existing support for visual hebrew, but didn't give logical hebrew.
Recently someone checked-in a better hebrew support, at least according to
news://news.mozilla.org/38D7F5EF.FABFF993%40us.ibm.com
>From the discussion there it was not clear to me how this support ended
up.
Anybody else here tried this?
