In order for the Arabic characters to be displayed in URLs in your browser the characters are encoded into a Latin based encoding called UTF-8 which typically are a 4 character hexadecimal string. An example would be the Arabic letter و WAW which is converted to D988.
Setting up a right-to-left pageAdd dir="rtl" to the html tag any time the overall document direction is right-to-left (RTL). This sets the default base direction for the whole document. All block elements in the document will inherit this setting unless the direction is explicitly overridden.
To set text direction in HTML, use the style attribute. The style attribute specifies an inline style for an element. The style attribute is used with the CSS property direction to set direction. Just keep in mind, the usage of style attribute overrides any style set globally.
This is the answer that was required but everybody answered only part one of many.
UTF-8 documentadvanced editors don't make it simple for you... go low level...
use notepad to save the document as meName.html & change the encoding
type to UTF-8
Step 2 - Mention in your html page that you are going to use such characters by
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"> Step 3 - When you put in some characters make sure your container tags have the following 2 properties set
dir='rtl' lang='ar' example
<p dir="rtl" lang="ar" style="color:#e0e0e0;font-size:20px;">رَبٍّ زِدْنٍي عِلمًا</p> NOTE: font type, font family, font face setting will have no effect on special characters
