Hey fellow monks,

I'm the new mutli-media guy at my church. On Sunday afternoons we have a service that is done in Urdu. I was recently approached by the pastor of that service to train some of his people so that they can use the multi-media stuff for their service. Unfortunately, Urdu is written right to left, so I thought I would write a rudimentary application to accomodate that, and then they could just cut-and-paste. Easier said than done. My efforts to find a right to left widget or find some ideas on how to implement the functionality have been fruitless.
If any of you monks out there know of such a widget or have any ideas of how I could use the standard widgets to accomplish the task, I would much appreciate your wisdom.

As always, many thanks in advance for your input,

davidj

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
