Unfortunately, the example shown will produce exactly the wrong result. The ", W3C" text must appear inside the span element to produce the expected result. If you change the example, however, you will run into the problem of how to show source text in a sensible fashion, since the hebrew is running right to left, and W3C must run left to right and be positioned to the left. I suggest that you describe the source text rather than show it. Eg. "... o the left of (i.e. after) the Hebrew text. This can be achieved by enclosing the quote in a span, to which the attribute code dir="rtl" has been added." I would also be tempted to show before and after examples, like those I suggested for http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-core/2007OctDec/0135.html If you want to do that, and need me to help provide examples and visually-ordered ascii, let me know. (I didn't do it just in case, because it takes a while to create them.)
