Details of the RTL support

The family of <HTMLB> libraries supports RTL (right-to-left) rendering for design2003. You can activate RTL rendering using the URL parameter sap-rtl=true (but only for the first call before the BSP-URL finds out the URL mangling). Use attribute rtlAutoSwitch from <htmlb:content> to activate the RTL mode automatically, depending on the currently active language (SY-LANGU). The decision whether to activate RTL is delegated to the NLS_RTL_DISPLAY function module.

The parameter names are case sensitive, as are the parameter values (exception: sap-exiturl, if they link to a case-sensitive server). You can combine several parameters in one URL.
