How to automatically change the site direction LTR\RTL?

[SeLover]

Hi all

I am looking to make my site bilingual (Arabic\English) that's mean 2 different directions

English => LTR "Left To Right"
Arabic => RTL "Right To Left"

so, i need a script "Like facebook" that when the user choose Arabic Language the site will change the whole template+Text to RTL, and the exact opposite when choose English language.

Thanks & Best Regards,

P.S I've searched on this forum for this case, but i didn't find a useful info, so if there is a post talk about the same issue and it's [Resolved] kindly put the link below.

no the script that i am using is not supporting the Auto swap

some people ask me to use if code

if lang_id=2 // for arabic
then use style-rtl.css

can someone help me to make this code

[subzero]

if($lang_id == "2")
{
Your css here
}else{
English css here
}

if($lang_id == "2")
{
Your css here
}else{
English css here
}

how i can make it <if ---- </if> "php code" ?

with these parameters:

lang_id=2 // Arabic, lang_id=1
arabic style = rtl.css
normal style= style.css

Just right now i've got an e-mail from friend told me the script is using these codes

in header template file

{* INLUCDE MAIN SHEET *}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./templates/styles_global.css" title="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./templates/styles.css" title="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./templates/progress.css" title="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

in header.php

// CREATE GLOBAL CSS STYLES VAR (USED FOR CUSTOM USER-DEFINED PROFILE/PLUGIN STYLES)
$global_css = "";
