Hello again.

I was working on other files here and found that this solution is somewhat unstable.
Did some further digging and found that if the <li> tag has a text-align style set to "right" then the list item will show on the left after all.

For example, this will create a list item on the left :

<ol>
   <li dir="rtl" style="text-align:right">
      <span>RTL</span>
   </li>
</ol>

For the moment, I've applied the following (somewhat rough, I know) sollution in HTML2WordML :

(added the 'unset' to the solution you've suggested previously)

if ((isset($properties['dir']) && strtolower($properties['dir']) == 'rtl') ||
    (isset($properties['direction']) && strtolower($properties['direction']) == 'rtl')) {
       unset($properties['text_align']);
       $stringListPr .= '<w:bidi w:val="1" />';
}

Will be happy to hear that this (or a better) solution will also be included in the next versions to come :)

Thanks.

Nir.
