I made my website in English, and i want to make an Arabic version as well..

My website(English): http://imagdy.zxq.net

i have changed the doc language and ofcourse wrote the website in arabic, but it doesnt display well, keeping in mind its not an browser encoding problem, i have tried that too, i really need help with that as i want to release the arabic version soon!

Thank you..

I did that, and then i see this pic, @__@
the underlined words should be Arabic, but they are not Arabic..

Codes: charset and font changed to ones which support Arabic

Head

CODE

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//AR"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="ar">
    <head>
        <meta name="generator" content=
        "HTML Tidy, see www.w3.org" />

        <title>iMagdy لتصميم الويب</title>
        <meta http-equiv="content-type" content=
        "text/html; charset=Windows-1256" />
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="ar-eg" />

CSS:

CODE

font-family: "helvetica", arial, verdana, sans-serif;

Arial should work fine with Arabic.

but the problem still not solved.

Btw, you should use charset=utf-8 instead of charset=Windows-1256

Try reading this topic. Not sure if it will help much, but that's the best I can help you with.

Also this may help a little more aswell: http://ssgdoc.bibliothek.uni-halle.de/vlib...arabwww_en.html
