You know how on a lot of TV, movie, game or book forums they have a "spoiler" tag -- the one that hides sensitive information so that it doesn't, well, [i]spoil[/i] the surprise for other people, right?

If so, you've probably noticed how we don't [i]have[/i] a "spoiler" tag over here. (There are hacks/mods for it, but that would be something for denis to do -- and a low priority at that)

Well, we may not have an official spoiler tag, but look at this -- we can make 'em ourselves!

Ever notice how the QUOTE box has a [i]white[/i] background color? Not that blueish-off-white background color across the threads, but pure white?

Bingo! Just quote it, color your text white, and voil! Instant homemade spoiler tag.

Observe how something like this....

[code:1][quote=SPOILER!!][color=white]

This is a spoiler

[/color][/quote][/code:1]

Becomes this!
[b]QUOTE[/b] (SPOILER!!)
This is a spoiler[/quote]

Easy, wasn't it? You just click and drag to reveal the spoiler, and yet it is safe from those who don't want to know ^_^

Very good indeed. They have a proper coding for it on SomethingAwful.com's forums but as you say we don't have that sort of thing over here (however little the need for it may be..)

Cheers for the tip!! ^_^
