Syntax
HRESULT put_unicodeBidi( BSTR v ); HRESULT get_unicodeBidi( [out, retval] BSTR *sEmbedLevel = normal );
Property values
Type: BSTR
One of the values listed in Possible Values.-
Initial value. Element does not open an additional level of embedding. For inline elements, implicit reordering works across element boundaries.
-
Element opens an additional level of embedding. The value of the IHTMLStyle2::direction property specifies the embedding level. Reordering is implicit inside the element.
-
Same as the embed value, except that, inside the element, reordering is strictly in sequence according to the IHTMLStyle2::direction property. This value overrides the implicit bidirectional algorithm.

Remarks
The IHTMLStyle2::unicodeBidi property is used with the IHTMLStyle2::direction property.
The Unicode bidirectional algorithm automatically reverses embedded character sequences according to their inherent direction. For example, the base direction of an English document is left-to-right. If portions of a paragraph within the document contain a language with a right-to-left reading order, the direction of that language displays correctly right-to-left. The user agent applying the bidirectional algorithm correctly reverses the language direction.
