spoiler tags

[Campino]

I've seen something recently at another forum,and i think it might be a good idea to use here as well (if possible).This is what i saw:if you want to prevent spoilers,type [spoiler]text here[/spoiler].The text inbetween the tags is blackened,and only readable if you highlight it.Thought it might be a good idea to use here as well.
Any suggestions?

Edit:you can find an example here

Interesting script, but what kind of software was that other board running on? Maybe that part was integrated in the board software... Other than that, it sounds like a nice idea, but I think, unless there are special hacks available, it'll be very time consuming for Ziroc...

That's a great idea!
If you make a 'instant UBB code' for it, so you won't have to type it all the time..

Looks like another ubb board - nope, something called vBulleting v2.2.2. However its a simple idea - id be surprised if there wasnt a mod to make a ubb forum do this as well.

Someone posted a simlar post a few months ago. I can't find the link but to write "invisible text" just use this

[font color="#3C301A"]Your text[/font]

Replace the [ and ] with < and >

--Testing--

It's a pretty good idea but I don't know how many people would know how to do it.
