Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open toggleRTL.html (attached)

What is the expected behavior?
The final direction should be LTR.

The script should output:
Switched to ''
getComputedStyle(document.documentElement).direction is ltr

What went wrong?
The final direction is actually RTL.

The script outputs:
Switched to ''
getComputedStyle(document.documentElement).direction is rtl


This works in IE 11 and Firefox 32
