Answer
This is the answer that was required but everybody answered only part one of many.
- Step 1 - You cannot have the multilingual characters in unicode document.. convert the document to
UTF-8document
advanced editors don't make it simple for you... go low level...
use notepad to save the document as meName.html & change the encoding
type to UTF-8
Step 2 - Mention in your html page that you are going to use such characters by
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">Step 3 - When you put in some characters make sure your container tags have the following 2 properties set
dir='rtl' lang='ar'- Step 4 - Get the characters from some specific tool\editor or online editor like i did with Arabic-Keyboard.org
example
<p dir="rtl" lang="ar" style="color:#e0e0e0;font-size:20px;">رَبٍّ زِدْنٍي عِلمًا</p>
NOTE: font type, font family, font face setting will have no effect on special characters
