Bug 16418 – Safari's RSS reader does not support the RTL text layout

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: INVALID
• Component: Text

[Ahmad]

The RSS reader dose not support the RTL text layout(Arabic, Persian Hebrew, Urdu, etc) in both Safari and the Mail. 
While the RTL text are displayed perfectly OK in Safari, Mail and Webkit , It seems that the RSS reader in these programs ignore the HTML tag <div align="right" dir="rtl"> etc. 
Same RSS feed look perfectly OK in the Internet Explorer version 7 for Windows.

All the RSS feed for RTL text should be aligned to right side of page and the text flow should 
be also Right to Left.

Radar is Apple's internal bug-tracking tool.  Any bug reported in Bugzilla (bugs.webkit.org) that can't be fixed in WebKit is migrated (or filed) in Radar so that Apple may track the issue.

Thanks!  This is for easier clicking:
