Glossary Term

unicode-bidi

3 tags 1 category

The unicode-bidi CSS property, together with the direction property, determines how bidirectional text in a document is handled. For example, if a block of content contains both left-to-right and right-to-left text, the user-agent uses a complex Unicode algorithm to decide how to display the text. The unicode-bidi property overrides this algorithm and allows the developer to control the text embedding.

The unicode-bidi and direction properties are the only properties that are not affected by the all shorthand.

Warning: This property is intended for Document Type Definition (DTD) designers. Web designers and similar authors should not override it.

Syntax example: unicode-bidi: normal;
