Tried to copy-n-paste the following string from yudit to mozilla: "Hello, shalom, zdraste" with "shalom" in Hebrew and "zdraste" in Russian. Result:

---x---
‬, здрасте

‮שלומ

Hello,
---x---

Fuck! It does not seem to properly process some (but not all!) BiDi directives. the result is what you can (?) read here. May be mozilla's fault too.

Oh no. :-)

Update: Yes, must be Mozilla. Opera does not understand BiDi, apparently, and happily writes

---x---
Hello, ‮שלומ‬, здрасте!
---x---

It also shows "strange" characters on both sides of the ‮שלומ‬ thing. Which means that Yudit must have put them there.

Hmm.

В конце слова "шалом" должна быть мэм софит.

I know, but I did not know how to find it on the keyboard. My point was not to learn how to write Hebrew, but how to write BiDi. :-)

It seems what is not working is the text entry form. Even if I paste Hebrew separately -- ‮עברית

-- but the rest is garbage.

As I said, fuck! :-)
