I''m in the process of developing a site in Hebrew. As I noted earlier
on this list, I''m also developing a localization plugin for rails,
called Multilingual, which I''m using to translate the site.
There''s
not much in the plugin for RTL, except for an entry in the db that
indicates which languages are RTL.
It''s up to the view designer to put in the proper "direction:
rtl"
properties. I also find that "unicode-bidi" is very useful in some
cases. It will sometimes be easier to design different erb templates
for the hebrew pages, so the plugin includes an option to use
different templates for each language, if available.
