[BIDI]" However differently from textarea, input element does not have any css rule for bidirectional text[2]. The textarea rule is: textarea[dir=auto i]{ unicode-bidi: plaintext; } [1] http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/dom.html#the-dir-attribute [2] http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/Overview.html#bidirectional-text 92855 1 robin 2013-09-03 11:45:45 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
