I18N Tests: RTL content and browser chrome 1
This is one of a set of pages that examine how right-to-left and bidirectional text affects user agents outside of the main content area.
Tests on this page seek to determine whether a user agent handles browser crome differently when the html
element has the dir attribute set to rtl. Some user agents move the vertical scrollbar and display javascript
popup boxes right-to-left in certain circumstances.
Note: This behaviour is not described by the HTML specification.
There is a dir="rtl" attribute on the html element of this document. The dir attribute is not
applied to body or head elements.
Alert box
Objective: Does dir="rtl" on the html element affect the placement of items in a JavaScript alert box?
The button uses the JavaScript alert() method to open an alert box.
Check whether the items on the alert box run from right to left or left to right. Also, check whether the text 'W3C' appears to the left of the Hebrew text in the message.
Confirm dialog box
Objective: Does dir="rtl" on the html element affect the placement of items in a JavaScript alert box?
The button uses the JavaScript confirm() method to open an confirmation box.
Check whether the items on the confirmation box run from right to left or left to right. Also, check whether the text 'W3C' appears to the left of the Hebrew text in the message.
User prompt
Objective: Does dir="rtl" on the html element affect the placement of items in a JavaScript prompt box?
The button uses the JavaScript prompt() method to open an user prompt box.
Check whether the items on the alert box run from right to left or left to right. Also, check whether the text 'W3C' appears to the left of the Hebrew text in the message. Also check whether the default input supplied runs left-to-right in the same way, and is right-justified.
Scroll bar
Objective: Does dir="rtl" on the html element affect the placement of the scrollbar?
Check whether the vertical scrollbar is on the right or the left. (Adjust the window size, if necessary.)
