Notes about the Hebrew on this Site
For the sections in Hebrew, you will need to have the appropriate fonts
installed on your computer. See Hebrew
on the Web for one possibility.
The current state of affairs, that we know about, anyway, is that most
editors and browsers don't know how to handle right to left-reading text.
The consequence is that the text we have presented is formatted to a specific
line width, and if a browser's window is narrower than that, the text
will wrap the beginning of a line of Hebrew below the rest of a line,
rather than the other way around. We're sorry if this poses a problem
for some of our users, but it's the best we've been able to do.
Another issue arose when we learned that some people were getting the
text re-reversed. It turned out that for users of the Hebrew version of
Windows 95, there is a setting accessible in the tray of the start bar
that switches between reversing what is found ("He" choice)
and leaving well enough alone ("En" choice). Figure 1 shows
the icon to click and the setting to choose ("En") to have our
pages displayed properly.
