Description

Timeline JS does not work correctly if the language is Arabic or Persian (or any language that uses a right-to-left script.) It needs a new CSS to support RTL scripts. A friend of mine and I wrote that script and tested it. It works. PLease let us know how it could be added to the new version of the software.
