input and dir=auto
Basic tests
| Test link | Assertion | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| input with dir=auto, start with L bidi-rendering-input-020.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element of type text is set according to the first strong character of its value. In this test, the first strong character is the Latin letter A, thus the direction must be resolved as LTR. |  |
| input with dir=auto, start with R/AL bidi-rendering-input-021.html |
en dir='auto', the direction of an input element is set according to the first strong character of its value. In this test, it is the Hebrew or Arabic letter Alef, thus the direction must be resolved as RTL. | |
| input with dir=auto, various types of input starting with L bidi-rendering-input-022.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element of type search, telephone, url, or email is set as LTR when the first strong character of its value is of type L (here the Latin letter A). | |
| input with dir=auto, various types of input starting with R bidi-rendering-input-023.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element of type search, telephone, url, or email is set as RTL when the first strong character of its value is of type R (here the Hebrew letter aleph). | |
| input with dir=auto, various types of input starting with AL bidi-rendering-input-023a.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element of type search, telephone, url, or email is set as RTL when the first strong character of its value is of type AL (here the Arabic letter alef). | |

When dir='auto', the direction of an input element is set according to the first strong character of its value. In this test, it is the Hebrew letter Alef since neutrals and digits are not strongly directional, thus the direction must be resolved as RTL. | |
| input with dir=auto, script assigns to all N+EN bidi-rendering-input-042.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element is set according to the first strong character of its value, or to LTR if there is no such character. In this test, there is no strongly directional character in the value, thus the direction must be resolved as LTR. | |
| input with dir=auto, script assigns to start with N+L bidi-rendering-input-043.html |
When dir='auto', the direction of an input element is set according to the first strong character of its value. In this test, it is the Latin letter A since neutrals are not strongly directional, thus the direction must be resolved as LTR. | |

pre and dir=auto
| Test link | Assertion | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| dir=auto, pre, paragraph by paragraph bidi-rendering-pre-110.html |
When dir='auto', the direction is set according to the first strong character of the text. For pre elements, the heuristic is applied on a per-paragraph level. | |
| pre with dir=auto, mixed L and R paragraphs bidi-rendering-pre-111.html |
When dir='auto', the direction is set according to the first strong character of the text. For textarea and pre elements, the heuristic is applied on a per-paragraph level. | |
| pre with dir=auto, all N+EN bidi-rendering-pre-112.html |
When dir='auto', the direction is set according to the first strong character of the text. For textarea and pre elements, the heuristic is applied on a per-paragraph level. If there is no strong character, as in this test, the direction defaults to LTR. | |
| pre with dir=auto, all-N between all-Rs bidi-rendering-pre-114.html |

| Test link | Assertion | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| dir=auto, textarea, paragraph by paragraph bidi-rendering-textarea-100.html |

br
| Test link | Assertion | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| BR separates bidi paragraph bidi-rendering-br-001.html |
A br element should separate paragraphs for the purposes of the Unicode bidirectional algorithm. | |
| BR in inline ancestors bidi-rendering-br-002.html |
A br element should separate paragraphs for the purposes of the Unicode bidirectional algorithm. If an inline element is broken around a bidi paragraph boundary (e.g. if split by a block or forced paragraph break), then the bidi control codes corresponding to the end of the element are added before the interruption and the codes corresponding to the start of the element are added after it. (In other words, any embedding levels or overrides started by the element are closed at the paragraph break and reopened on the other side of it.) | |
