Re: Initial Feedback on Bidi Improvements in HTML

Aharon,

I had some other references in mind and hope to get you more examples.

However, a quick Google Books search came up with this book with a mixed 
RTL/LTR bibliography:
http://books.google.com/books?id=tsIkuYDS_A4C&pg=PT142&dq=%D8%A7%D9%84&lr=lang_ar&as_brr=3&cd=28#v=onepage&q=%D8%A7%D9%84&f=false
See page 224.

This had a mixed RTL/LTR bibliography as well, but the numbers were all 
European digits:
http://books.google.com/books?id=_yBTV4yHT7AC&pg=PT232&dq=%D8%A7%D9%84&lr=lang_ar&as_brr=3&cd=8#v=onepage&q=%D8%A7%D9%84&f=false
See page 677.

Cheers,


Craig.
