Spoiler Button on the editor.

[Michael Morris]

Hi folks. Since this forum handles spoilers more than most I'm posting this notice here.

I recently added a quick button for the spoiler tag. As many of you are aware, spoiler tags

Spoiler

do this to text

. The button is labeled "Hide Text" and it is the 4th button from the right. To use it, highlight your spoiler with the mouse and click the button - it's that easy.

As a possible suggestion could you change spoiler text to something like red on red instead of black on black? The way it'd be a little more obvious when someone has a spoiler embedded in their message and it's not just an incomplete sentence.

I like that idea. I find myself doing lots of highlights in posts because I'm not sure if they have a spoiler there or not.

Spoony Bard,

Could you post somewhere about the {hq} tag as well? That's the one which produces a contrasting color no matter the display setting.

Like this.

And (although it doesn't belong in the movie forum) I'd like to be able to check out how the dice tag works. That one I've completely forgotten how to do.

Maybe these are all covered somewhere in a FAQ I've missed?

This may be a silly question, but how do I view the information people have tagged with the spoiler tag?

Rake over it with the mouse, to highlight it.

Cool, thanks!
