Scrollbar / Direction issue

Question

Hi Guys, this is my first post here. I have Code for displaying the scrollbar on the left side of the div:

body 
{
    direction:ltr;
}

and

<div style="direction:rtl;">

and the text is still left to right everything works great in IE but in firefox and safari it displays still on right side

any ideas / suggesstions / help would be appreciated
