textarea RTL
Hello
I have a whole page that is in English. However I had a text area which I planning to use it write rtl text. So I want to be able to type in it from rtl...
Thank you..

Thank you
works great.
Another question please... Can we make the default input language inside that text area other than English? I mean so that the user does not have to switch the keyboard language manually...

The following page has all you need to know:
