Suppose my stylesheet says that where I have dir="rlo" I apply a bidi override to my (say) XHTML2 text. CSS 2 says: "If the element is inline-level or a block-level element that contains only inline-level elements, this creates an override." Does that mean that none of the text in this example below actually has the bidi algorithm overridden? <div dir="rlo">Inline only text. <p>Some text in a block.</p> <p>Some more text.</p> </div> CSS 2.1 says: "For inline-level elements this creates an override. For block-level, table-cell, table-caption, or inline-block elements this creates an override for inline-level descendents not within another block-level, table-cell, table-caption, or inline-block element." Does that mean that only the text "Inline only text." in this example below actually has the bidi algorithm overridden? <div dir="rlo">Inline only text. <p>Some text in a block.</p> <p>Some more text.</p> </div> Thanks for clarification.
