Unfortunaltely, I do not write offten in arabic and i'm not familiar with
arabic html stuff !! However, I tried different pages and some of them
as you said do not have specific indication to direction, some use
(lang="ar" xml:lang="ar" dir="rtl").
For me toggling fonts in eww is a good solution. It worked well and have the
advantage of displaying good fonts.
Thanks for all,
Mohamed
P.S. Eli closed the bug.
