Hi Jirong,

On the dbSNP page you provided, in the "Integrated Maps" section there 
is a column labeled "SNP to Chr" which contains "-" in the row labeled 
GRCh37.p5. This is the mapping we use for hg19, and the strand matches 
what we have in snp135.

If you are looking in the "Submitted records for this RefSNP Cluster" 
section, there is a column labeled "ss to rs Orientation/Strand". dbSNP 
clustered a bunch of submitted SNPs (ss's, that we don't store) into 
rs1000026. It chose ss1459614 as the representative ss because it had 
the longest flanking sequence, and used it as the basis of rs1000026 -- 
keeping the orientation of ss1459614 which is on the reverse strand of 
the reference genome. Then it reports all the ss's on the forward strand 
of the reference as "rev/B", because their orientation is the opposite 
of ss1459614.

I hope this information is useful and answers your question. Please 
contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further questions.
