You can say "direction: rtl" in CSS. That's what makes IE play games
with its scrollbar.

The example is at
http://www.whatsup.org.il/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=10639
I didn't try to understand the source, but it uses both
Javascript and CSS.
(BTW, it's a public page where the topic was "otherunix" stuff
and thus is graphics-rich.)

I *am* curious - was this the browser's scroll bar that got moved by some
ms html extension or what? www.bezeq.co.il, for example, has some code to
give it a "cool" blue scrollbar, but on the right.
Pointer, please.

A curiosum: I was looking at an Israeli web page, almost all
in Hebrew, with IE. It contrives to make the scrollbar
appear (and work) on the left.

actually i haven't done it for ages.
it happens when i'm trying to click on a scrollbar in the left hand
column, and miss and click on the window border instead, resizing the
window; repeat a few times (almost subconscious mouse repetition), and
acme crashes because it's trying to get a named image but rio has
already discarded that named image in favour of the next one...
i guess it happens with acme 'cos i usually have an acme window that
covers most of the screen, so it takes a while to resize/move.
it's an interesting illustration of the kind of problem that can occur
when using out-of-band data transfer.

getwindow() knows about rio borders (it gets the named image which is
the rio window, then creates the application's window inside a screen
inside that).
this area is a little fragile (there's a race which means that
getwindow() can return nil even though there is a window to be got;
it's quite easy to crash acme this way, for example).

no, it's just that i'd not seen it before you demonstrated it,
but you could crash it quite easily.
