Description:
------------
The PHP Manual has a few RTL (right-to-left) languages, and phpweb has issues displaying them. For example, this code:

<?php

Shows as this:

php?>

Wouldn't it be most logical to put a dir="ltr" on every example tags so examples always would show as "left-to-right", even though comments and such might be written from "right-to-left" it shouldn't be that big of an issue :)

It would.

We back in the day some rtl language translator added dir="rtl" to the XML sources... For some reason Gabor strongly disagreed and remove the attribute, leaving us in the situation we are in today.

I would very much welcome the usage of dir attributes in rtl translations.

Perhaps we should mail those active languages who may want to use RTL mode and hear if its needed. I don't think it would be that big of a deal to implement :)

To my knowledge, none of the active languages are RTL.

I committed a change that explicitly forces dir="ltr" on programlistings for the PHP format
