Re: Words

well i mostly use pico or notepad also vi works but you wont be able to read the escape characters so ull have to save everytime u type and refresh.

you can also use vim for windows and be able to read arabic while typing too


my designers use frontpage too but it uses some wierd codes that replaces characters such as ر etc..

also NVU.com the free software uses same codes i believe its ISO characters for arabic for example if you save the code below you'll know what i mean:


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html dir="rtl">
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type">
<title>&#1578;&#1580;&#1585;&#1576;&#1577; &#1575;&#1604;&#1593;&#1585;&#1576;&#1610;</title>
</head>
<body>
&#1575;&#1604;&#1587;&#1604;&#1575;&#1605; &#1593;&#1604;&#1610;&#1603;&#1605; &#1608; &#1585;&#1581;&#1605;&#1577; &#1575;&#1604;&#1604;&#1607; &#1608; &#1576;&#1585;&#1603;&#1575;&#1578;&#1607;
</body>
</html>


if you use UTF-8 or windows-1256 (which most people do) you need to set the meta cotent charset to the same for example windows-1256 or UTF-8


not sure if NVU can be configured to support unicode or so but can give it a try :)


basically to have RTL u just add dir="rtl" to the <html> or <div> tags to have <html dir="rtl"> or <div dir="rtl">



Best Regards,

By the way, I don't know how to deal with arabic and parenthesis, it's illogic.
What's the best editor for HTML + Arabic , specially when translating an english we page to arabic.
Thank you.
