I have a piece of HTML code which contains a textarea. I am doing a GVT testing by inputting a mxed characters such as abcأبجABC in this text area.


The display of the string is correct in the RTL mode. HOWEVER, the keyboard navigation is wrong. It does not follow the correct order when going through English string and the Arabic string.

I would like to know how to bypass this issue.

Thanks a lot.

Actually you cannot do it. As a Hebrew speaking person I can tell you that there are lot's of problems in this area, especially when you mix an RTL and LTR languages or sometimes numbers. There is nothing you can do. Sometimes the browser can handle is and sometimes it doesn't. For example in Chrome when you use ctrl button to go faster in Hebrew text the directions of the right and left keys change to their opposite.
