   A few words about this: there are 2 methods to switch the text directions: the default uses a Microsoft mirror filter, but the better way is to download and install these purpose-made fonts (low-stress, old-style, even-width) and try the page again with BOO typed into the font textbox.
   You'll end up with a complete web page, with all the tags opened and closed. To make something permanent it's better to download the fonts: the filter method makes a ragged print. Install them, remake the page, 'view-source', and save the text file you see as 'something.html'
   BOUSTROPHEDONIC ... A way to save those moments flicking your eyes from line-end to line-start. Think of the accumulated wasted hours*, the languages you could have mastered, the shelves put up... and all the shared fun you never had reading alternate lines with a friend...
   Other fonts: To keep the paragraph square the font has to be monospaced: so the processor can decide how many extra pixels to splice in. But any font works with the Explorer filter: type the name into the textbox and check the last radio button. The ones listed are just what are in my PC. Consolas (if you have a newer machine) and Lucida are the best of these. Sites like dafont will have others. Any comments: E-mail
