Is this an ellipsis from 'text-overflow: ellipsis'? https://drafts.csswg.org/css-ui/#text-overflow says that the ellipsis side is determined from directionality, which makes me think that putting the dir="auto" attribute on the element with the 'text-overflow: ellipsis' would help. (Then again, that would also affect alignment, which might be undesirable.) -David -- 𝄞 L.
