The same elements as for a website in any other (natural) language. If you are an Arabic speaker I'm sure you will get much better specific help on an Arabic web forum somewhere.

The important bit is that you use a character encoding on the server that covers Arabic characters and that you use an editor that can encode the characters the same way. I think UTF-8 does the job, but others here will know more about this than I do.

I think UTF-8 does the job, but others here will know more about this than I do. http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/arabic.html I think that's the Really Easy bit. The problems are things like - Arabic is written from right to left. So does CSS "margin-left" still mean "the width of the margin at the side you start reading (i.e. the right side), or does it still mean "left", and thus have reverse effect from before. I don't know, and you can be quite certain that neither html nor css started out being designed by someone who had thought about all this, so in the end it's a bunch of kludges, and other Arabic speakers will be the ones to get you started on it. |
