L’indicateur d’ordre des octets (BOM) en HTML (The byte-order mark (BOM) in HTML)

Les langues qui s’écrivent de droite à gauche (Languages using right-to-left scripts)

Thanks to Gwendoline Clavé, Clavoline Traduction for providing these translations.

This document describes and prioritises gaps for the support of Korean language on the Web and in eBooks. In particular, it is concerned with text layout. It checks that needed features are supported in W3C specifications, in particular HTML and CSS and those relating to digital publications. It also checks whether the features have been implemented in browsers and ereaders. This is a preliminary analysis.

The first public working draft is published to encourage users and experts to review the information it currently contains, and provide any additional information that may be relevant to supporting users of the Korean language on the Web.

We are looking for expert contributors who can help us move this work forward by answering questions, documenting other gaps in support, and creating tests. For more information about the program, see this 15 minute overview (slides), and see the Language Enablement overview page.
