scrollbar on the left side on a modal window

Hello

I know that if I write the following:
<html dir="rtl">...</html>
Then the browser automatically flips everything in the page to be right-to-left, including the scrollbar.

I was trying to do the same in the code that I am displaying inside a popup modal window which was triggered using:
window.showModalDialog()
However, it seems like the browser is not willing to place the scrollbar on the left even if I set the dir attribute to "rtl". Everything else but the scrollbar gets flipped.

Is this a bug in IE? (I am using 6.0).
Can anyone know how I can acheive the same effect in a modal window?

thanks
