Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7
When I set a page to be RTL in the <html dir="rtl"> tag, and I put any block element with <p dir="ltr" style="width:50%"> they align to the left, even though all other browsers (Opera, IE6 & 7, and Safari) show them where they should be, aligned to the right.
I've included a source code for this bug to see it in action and compare other browsers' behavior.
Kind regards,
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save the attached source code in any file.html.
2. Open it and compare behavior in all other browsers.
3. Hope you fix it :)
Actual Results:
The whole block element is aligned to the left.
Expected Results:
It should have stayed aligned to the right in an RTL page.
Test case, please save it and view it:

This is a test case of the same bug and the same source, just for lazy people :p

This is fixed in trunk, so I assume it's a dupe. Uri, I think this might have been one of yours. Do you remember the original bug?

I have just downloaded the nightly build of mozilla firefox 2.0.0.8
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.8) Gecko/20071008 Firefox/2.0.0.8
And the problem still there, even though the problem is fixed on Firefox 3.0a (renders correctly), but I was hoping to get this fixed in the upcoming release because this seems to be very important rendering issue for BiDi users.
Regards,

Yes, bug 328181.

This will be fixed in Firefox 3.0. It will not be fixed in any 2.0 release, because it's not a security or stability issue.

Mass-assigning the new rtl keyword to RTL-related (see bug 349193).
Keywords: rtl
Component: Layout: BiDi Hebrew & Arabic → Layout: Text
QA Contact: layout.bidi → layout.fonts-and-text
