but it doesn't works for me. please show me a way. its my web site : http://follower.siblearn.ir i wanna change the 2.500 and 5.000 to the persian/arabic format.

In this case, arabic numerals are not the same physical characters as 0,1,2...9. So you have to actually explicitly write arabic numerals like ٩ on your page for this to work. Of course, you could use client-side scripting to automatically replace 0,1,2...9 numerals with arabic numerals when their `lang` is `fa`... — bzlm, Mar 30 '15 at 19:56

You should use Persian or Arabic font family like this:

body {  font-family: 'B Koodak',tahoma; }

before that, add some code like this to your html header:

<link href='http://www.fontonline.ir/css/BKoodakBold.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

remember you can use your favorite fonts from online or hosted files.

{ font-family: 'B Koodak'; }

on every tag or class you want to apply for numbers
