I have not tested its Unicode compliance for several years (we instituted Moodle locally to support language programs that needed Unicode, so I've had little incentive to do so). But I gave a training session to our Hebrew instructors last semester on another topic, and asked them if they had been able to "do" Hebrew on our local D2L instance. They indicated that they could not. I don't know if their issues were with character sets, right-to-left, or both. bb *********************************************** LLTI is a service of IALLT, the International Association for Language Learning (http://iallt.org/), and The Consortium for Language Teaching and Learning (http://www.languageconsortium.org/).
