Question

I have a textarea with direction from right to left

#myTextarea
{
    direction: rtl; 
}

on an event, with jquery, i change the direction from left to right :

$('#myTextarea').css('direction', 'ltr');

this move the whole content of the textarea from right to left.

I want to move only the current line, and let the previous lines in their default direction.

Is there a way to achieve that ?

Answer 1

This is not possible, the text direction can only apply to the entire textarea element, not the lines within it.
