- XML Worker now recognizes dir="rtl", both as an HTML attribute and a CSS property, for and tags, in addition to the already existing functionality

The fix worked, and Michaël added some extra fixes on top of the suggestions by Arnost Havelka: cells with a rowspan wouldn't be skipped on the calculation of the widths of the second (and other) row.

New in XML Worker 1.1.6 (Aug 23, 2012)
- Changes:
- Fix: if inCssFile is null, the default CSS should be used.
- Fix: When a div is in a table, XML Worker 1.1.5 (using iText 5.3.1) fails. 1.1.4 with 5.3.0 does produce output.

- Cleaning up different spacing issues.
- Fixing justified alignment.

- Replacing String[] with String... in FileRetrieveImpl.
- Adding a constructor to FileRetrieveImpl with a File object defining a root directory as parameter.

- XMLWorkerFontProvider: With DONOTLOOKFORFONTS, you can avoid that the FontProvider spends time on registering font directories (you may not need them).
- XMLWorkerHelper: If a charset is defined, you want to use it when parsing XML.
- Added a convenience class that can be used to parse XML to a list of elements: ElementList
- XMLParser: detecting the encoding didn't work in some environments because the mark was invalid (and a call to reset() failed). Now we expect a '>' in the first 1028 characters.
- Added setChunkCssAplier() method to the CssAppliers interface
New in XML Worker 1.1.1 (Dec 1, 2011)
- Changes:
- Added a subclass Value to the Attribute subclass of the HTML class.
- Better check for CSS link.
- Reuse the TagProcessorFactory inside XMLWorkerHelper.
- Changed the accidental rename in StackKeeper of getTag() to getName() back to getTag(), as it returns a Tag.
- Added FLOAT, RIGHT and BOTTOM to the CSS class for future use.
- Removed the CssApplier interface. It's no longer used: XYZCssApplier no longer implements CssApplier. Some had different method signatures anyway. XYZCssAppliers are now used through the CssAppliers class which will detect which applier to use. This change makes the css applier classes easier to be used elsewhere by decoupling it from the HtmlPipelineContext.
- Fixed bug #3397508: content placed in a child tag of p-tag wasn't shown if the p-tag contained a xfa tab style attribute.
- Fixed bug #3413287: The disc symbol of an unordered list was rendered too big and not the same colour as the list content. An ordered list rendered the symbol at the correct size but also suffers the color issue.
- CssUtils: added a defaultMetric parameter to the method parsePxInCmMmPcToPt. This will allow to set the defaultMetric of numeric values.
- Bugfix: the wrong Reader instance was used in the parseWithReader method of the XMLParser class.
- Bugfix XMLParser: the InputStream wasn't being reset after detecting the encoding in the detectEncoding() method.
