Re: [Xsltforms-support] Support for rtl text input

[Winona S. <wsa...@gm...>]

Hi Alain,
That is great to hear, I will give it a try. I have also found a CSS
solution that seems to work pretty well:

input {
    text-align: start !important;
    unicode-bidi: plaintext !important;
}


In terms of dir=auto on other elements I would think labels and outputs
would be the most useful.
Thanks for your continued help!
