I'm reopening this. The bug description (line in wrong place) has been fixed. But the bug itself (RTL CSS problems: forum indenting and navigation menu formatting) still seems to be there. I verified that the new CSS and the fixed line position are in there, but some problems remain, see the attached picture (for Arabic test):

  • The Navigation menu has LTR instead of RTL as far as I can tell?
  • The rounded corners in the forum posts are in the wrong places.
  • The navigation bar has the site name (Keski-Suomen Koulu) and the course short name (FYS-101) in left-to-right order, should they also be in right-to-left?

I don't know much about how the RTL is supposed to work, so apologies if my conclusions are wrong.

Martin, if you get different results, can you attach a screenshot? I'm testing 1.9 stable only, with Firefox 2.0.0.14.

Yes, RTL is a wierd thing. I think the browser tries to do something intelligent with mixed RTL and LTR text, because some of the mixing up seems reduced on a fully RTL site.

Could you please file new bugs for all these and I'll try to find a RTL expert to examine them. I'll close this because the main problems I was seeing are fixed.

The rounded corners: quick fix is to disable the "styles_moz" file from the current theme ... those rounded corners just don't work properly in RTL. I suppose we could add heaps of overrides into rtl.css to disable them.
