Tips for right-to-left web design?
Hi there: I've started to test some Arabic translation (for now using google translator) in kune to look how RTL languages works on it. I only did the top bar (yes, I suppose is a crappy translation, but doesn't matters, is only a test, I'm worried about the modifications in the code to support it). Look the result: http://kune.beta.iepala.es/?locale=ar# So, I need some help: can anybody give me some web tips to support these languages? Like: - be sure that you configure all the textbox to be right-to-left. - mmmm, buttons with (icons + texts) should be (texts + icons). I don't know if this is true... is just an example that maybe it's true - titles of pages should be... - etc. Also, I can change easily all the left area (Social Network & tools) to the right as in this draft: http://kune.ourproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/web_template-2011.png but, this is useful for Arabic and rtl languages? I don't know... So some tips more than welcome... If furthermore someone want to help in the translation just give me his/her username in kune.beta.iepala.es and I'll add to the translation group.
