* SUMMARY 
There is a CSS style for <ol> elements, list-style-type, which allows for a numbering style. If that attribute is set to "hebrew", the hebrew numbers are not RTL.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE 
1. Go to http://homepage.mac.com/avidrissman/testcases/hebrewlist.html

* RESULTS
The first ten items in the list have one-letter labels, so they are fine. But starting with the eleventh, the labels now consist of two letters, which should be displayed RTL. They are not.

* REGRESSION
This has been present since the earliest builds of Safari.

* NOTES
none

attached screenshot comparing with Mozilla, which also puts the period before the number instead of after.

I can't be 100% sure without the original test case, but I think this is fixed in TOT and probably in the latest shipping version of Tiger.
