Ideally, you should be using something like:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";>
<html lang="he">
<head>
<title>Language Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<p>ראש חטיבת המחקר באגף המודיעין במטכ"ל, תא"ל יוסי<span
lang="en">English words</span>להישגים; אלוף גדי אייזנקוט,</p>
</body>
</html>]
(don't ask me about that Hebrew--I cut it from a website I found :)
Also, in an ideal CSS world (since this is a CSS list), you would use
the following selectors:
body { direction: rtl; }
span[lang=en] { direction: ltr; }
But I have a feeling that browsers should deal with that direction stuff
automatically anyway.
