There is not too much science involved. The trick is to know what language
encoding your browser support. Most of the browsers supports
multi-languanges.
If you look at the header of the HTML for the site, you will find the
following:
<HTML dir="rtl" lang="ar">
This will instruct to display the correct language encodings. Mind you,
there are some tricky issues surrounding this especially if your particular
language is not well supported on your OS.
If you are thinking of database driven sites, you will have to be more
careful as it depends on the database support for multi-languages,
especially unicode instead of just pure ascii/ansi character sets.
