Re: trying mozilla bidi



it's www.haaretz.co.il
I don't have ie to check it out sorry:)
works well with netscape though...

I also notice that when you have html site name in hebrew it shows it in
gibrish as in the go menu

would it support inseration of text as well?
like being able to use search engine in hebrew also?

|  I tried today CVS with bidi compiled and got the following result
|  
|  * good detecting of hebrew encoding succeed on all sites beside haaretz
|  
|  * go button title is still backwards
|  
|  * problem with breaking hebrew lines goes down instead of up
|  
|  * most widgest seems to show hebrew right (all the ones I saw)
|  
|  * english/hebrew text works fine
|  
|  * a bit bugs with some sites before fully loading crashed only once so far
|  
|  * digets also seems to work fine
|  
|  I think I would wait few days before rpming it anyhow..
