A few weeks in the past I used to be tremendous enthusiastic about publishing my first CSS-Methods submit: “Letter Spacing is Damaged. Overlook about that although, what’s necessary is the submit’s matter: letter spacing is damaged and doesn’t work because the CSS Specification says it ought to. In a nutshell, as a substitute of spacing the characters evenly, it leaves an disagreeable house on the finish of the ingredient.
Whereas this inconsistency between the online and the spec is only a quirk for a Spanish/English speaker like me, for audio system of right-to-left (RTL) languages like Arabic or Hebrew, an annoying house is left in the beginning or finish of a phrase. Firefox (Gecko) kinda fixes it and rearranges the pointless house on the finish (within the studying order), however Google and Safari (Blink and Webkit) go away it in the beginning.
In fact, I needed to demo this main ache level, however styling RTL content material was past my CSS energy. That’s when I discovered this life-saver information by Ahmad Shadeed that covers each main facet of styling RTL content material on the internet and greatest practices to simply internationalize an LTR webpage. A useful resource that, I believe, is a must-read in case you are occupied with i18n and accessibility within the internet.
I’ll have found heat water since this information goes again to 2018, however I hope these like me who didn’t learn about it have enjoyable studying one thing new!
