Please translate this file instead, it is more up to date than the attached file:
http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/mozilla.com/trunk/oc/index.html?revision=19669&content-type=text%2Fplain

Thanks

Note about the page, it should be displayed in right-to-left direction.

Concerning the header, here is its translation:

[زُر Mozilla.com (باللغة الإنجليزية)]

I have landed the necessary CSS fixes on https://he.www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/he/, and described it on bug 464306. 

Would you like to use the same layout for your landing page?

The link above requires an authentication so I can access it!

you should be able to connect with your LDAP credentials. If you have forgotten your ldap password, we can ask for it to be reset.

Pascal: please use an RLM character before the sentence:
[زُر Mozilla.com (باللغة الإنجليزية)]

or switch it to:
[(باللغة الإنجليزية) Mozilla.com زُر]

so it can be displayed in the right order.

Thanks

I added a rtl span for the string, it looks correct now

Anas, could you add a translation of the MB string in http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/mozilla.com/trunk/ar/includes/l10n/main.lang?revision=20162 ?

this should solve the display bug in the download box. Please tell me when you feel the page is good enough to go live, thanks.

Comment 11

[Anas Husseini [:linostar]]

I added the translation of "MB".

But what about the OS name that appears in the download box? How to translate it?

Another thing, what is the plan for firefox and thunderbird landing pages (expecially for firefox 3.0.5)?

Thanks

Comment 12

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc (PTO until April 26)]

you can add the translations of the OS strings in main.lang as well.

This page is the landing page for Firefox. The landing page for thunderbird will be on mozillamessaging.com but the site isn't created yet, it will be done for thunderbird 3.

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc (PTO until April 26)]

Marking this one fixed, I made a small css change to not have the thunderbird paragraph so far from the text boxes. There is a small display bug in the download box in IE6 but it's still readable and we can live with it. Thanks!
