It sounds like the same horrific experience the flash community is having BIDI algorithm.

the good part is that are a lot of BIDI functions out there written in ActionScript (which is ECMA script compliant) and with some little tweaks convert it to JavaScript.

this is nice but far from been a full sulltion BIDI algorithm

is far more complex as you all probobly know

(למשל משפט כזה עברית and ENGLISH )

This method is a simple direction swap, it gives an answer to LTR text, but still no BIDI..

I guass multiline is out of the question (maybe with a more complex method), and what about punctuation marks at the end of lines?

The flash community is dealing with BIDI-unsupport for a long time now (hopefully until next ver), and generated tons of tricks and methods to deal with it, there is about 80% solution for BIDI in flash. I don't know what will be microsoft approach to BIDI, but until then ActionScript solutions can be easily ported to silverlight.

I really hope microsoft won't leave this undone..

I see silverlight (WPF/E) as a real competition for the flash platform, And hopefully will get the market moving faster : )

shvilam, you are right, this is not complete solution, but it very good start for developers.

WPF fully supports BIDI (as well as utf16)

Ido, it's ok for punctuation and EOLs, Silverlight is still in "AlphaBeta" stage, the final version will support BIDI as well as WPF is.

shvilam, תהיה לנו תמיכה ב Right to Left בקרוב, אנחנו לא מתכוונים לחזור על הטעויות שעשו אחרים בתחום הזה. במיקרוסופט ישראל מאוד רגישים לעניין העברית.

אני גם מאמין שעם נפתח פורום כזה בפלאשו

יצרפו אל הפורום הרבי אנשים חדשים שלא התעסקו בפלאש בעבר

Your Post is very useful.

Currently I am working with silverlight, and publishing resources and tutorials on silverlight at http:\\www.silverlighttutorials.blogspot.com

This could be useful for silverlight application developers.
