I was working on an Arabic language site for one of my clients, and needed to adapt one of the free CSS designs out there on the web, however my problem was that the CSS design was written for Latin based languages, or more accurately for Left-To-Right languages, and I needed a quick way to convert it to work for the Arabic language, which is a Right-To-Left language. So while I was just about to put on my heavy armored CSS gear, I googled around a little and found this very cool tool published by
Ahmad Al Hashimi (أحمد الهاشمي) named CSSMirror, which did the job flawlessly!
The tool can be found here
The way to use it is to simply download a CSS template from any free CSS site like this one then drop the zip file into Ahmad's tool and you've got the RTL version ready to download!
And for those who don't read Arabic, I've made this small illustration of how to use Ahmad's tool:
Great Tool!
