Spoiler tag is now in place. Thanks to Lupin for writing the code.

Just highlight the black area with your cursor to read the text.


[spoiler]This will be a great tag for those who doesn't want to be spoiled if they haven't seen a movie or read a book yet.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]If you look at the Topic Review area at the bottom of the screen when you are post a reply or quote, the [spoiler][/spoiler] areas are left unmasked. Also, colored text shines through, no matter what -- kind of neat, but it could be inconvenient.[/spoiler]

3) Maybe. I don't know.

Answer: [spoiler]1) Yes, it does.[/spoiler]

There was a spell check MOD considered, but the idea was nix'ed after we noticed it showed ads.

Ok....an improvement has been made to this forum.


The spoiler tags can now be highlighted by just moving the cursor over the dark part in Firefox and in IE. No need to hold down the left button.


Also, the page will not stretch out when a large picture is posted. It'll resize to fit your screen.

Thanks to Lupin for writing the code.

I don't know about IE, but I can attest that it was already like that in Firefox.

Well, that's how it was supposed to work. However, firefox listened to my CSS, and IE did not.

Gee, I thought that code will prevent the page from stretching with text as well. Ok, Lupin. You need to find a code to prevent text from doing that as well.

Point:

Keep in mind how you handle long URLs. You don't want to make them stop working just because they span multiple lines.

I already seen what it does in other forums.

It puts a few dots in the URL.

Like this:
http://www.example.com/text.............jpg

Instead of showing the entire URL.
