If the page is html standards compliant, and I'm certain it is, then in the html tag, what is needed is "dir=rtl" and voila. Check this:

</div>I'll ask you the same things that I ask everyone going for a<br>
translation: Are you alone or are there a few more people doing the<br>
translation? Do you think you can keep up with a) the existing content<br>
and b) changing wiki pages?<br>
<br>
I ask that, because most attempts to add a language to the wiki ended<br>
pretty soon, after a few articles were translated.<br>
<br>
That is nothing personal, but just a question coming out of that<br>
experience, I personally think it is great, that you want to do<br>
something like that.<br>
<br>
> Please be aware that there *might* be a need to create new templates since<br>
<div class="im">> Arabic is an RTL language.<br>
<br>
</div>I haven't the faintest idea what has to be done to support that :)<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
