From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98) BuildID: 00000000 - Bidi build dated 20010404 Bidi: When a Arabic visual (FE range characters) htm is displayed on Windows 2000 and windows NT having a 06 character such as kashida or Arabic semicolon, Shaddah in it, the system does some bidi processing to the string which then changes it correct order. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open file cp864.htm 2.check out on of the words with Shaddah in. Actual Results: the order of the word with Shaddah character is mixed up Expected Results: the word should read correctly. You can view that by setting Mozilla clipboard mode to logical and copy that word, then paste it in Notepad. Need to insert Right-to-Left markers before those characters in the buffer, to force their correctc display on Win2000 and NT

the patch in bug 81664 solves this problem as it handles FE & 06 characters seperately and thus at one point of time there is only one type of string sent for display (either FE or 06).
Depends on: 81664
