Question

I have Unicode text being displayed on an ASP.NET page. The text is enclosed by two square brackets, as soon as Arabic text appears the ending bracket goes reverse, e.g.
“[Hi there]” becomes “[ [arabic“. Is this a browser issue? The brackets are hard-coded and only the enclosing text is dynamic.

Here is some sample code. The variable resultString contains the Unicode text.

<%
Response.Write("[" + resultString+ "]  ");
%>

Editing to not be stupid. This should do what you want.

<%
    string resultString = "العربية";
    Response.Write("<p dir = \"LTR\"> [" + resultString + "]</p>  ");
%>
