<h1>Famous seaside songs</h1>

<p>The English song "Oh I do like to be beside the seaside"</p>

<p>
  Looks like this in Hebrew:
  <span dir="rtl">אה, אני אוהב להיות ליד חוף הים</span>
</p>

<p>
  In the computer's memory, this is stored as
  <bdo dir="ltr">אה, אני אוהב להיות ליד חוף הים</bdo>
</p>
html {
  font-family: sans-serif;
}

bdo {
  /* Add your styles here */
}

The text's characters are drawn from the starting point in the given direction; the individual characters' orientation is not affected (so characters don't get drawn backward, for example).

Result Notes

The HTML 4 specification did not specify events for this element; they were added in XHTML. This is most likely an oversight.
