Arabic letters in Text object
I want to create a web pages which has to show the mother language the user clicks. For eg. French, German, Arabic. If a particular language is selected then all web pages should be in that language.
I want to know is it possible to make a text field object is made to enter Arabic character and is it possible to make it accept it from right to left in typing.
Can any one help me. I am not sure how browser will support it.
Thanks and Regards

TextField is an awt class, and awt does not have support for arabic text, in fact it does not have much support for i18n(Internationalization) at all.
If you use Swing you will get what you want.
check out http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3.0/docs/guide/intl/index.html for all your i18n needs! (there is a tutorial you should follow there too)
