Question on text colours...

Dreamer128 · 06-10-2003, 06:48 AM

I'm trying to hide a spoiler by giving it the same colour as the Ironworks background. Any idea how to do this?

if we can keep this post bumped to the top, Ziroc will eventualy have to tell us the background colour code. unless he decides to set Choc on us. we can only hope

In Baldur's Gate: Shadows of Amn FAQ Section:
You may also use HTML to disguise your spoiler into the background. Forum posts are made of two colours, #3D2F1B, for the darker ones, #44341D, for the lighter ones.

You have Dundee Slaytern to thank for that!

OK, so we thank Vedran instead! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Vedran is a man of many talents. He used to help me with my old "Item Making For You" thread, and then he works out the colours for spoilers tags!

Vedran, you're great! Thank you! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

It's funny for a time, but after a few posts, it just get annying to have to add the codes all the time.

I think I've seen it used long before Vedran even registered, but oh well. Reminds me of BGDungeon, when we used to have entire topics in invisible words - once a fun way to fool people with. The joke ran old really fast, though.

edit: though I've seen hacks on other message board types incorporating special "spoiler tags", turning [spoiler]text[/spoiler] into an easy way to make the text invisible to read unless highlighted. Not sure if such a hack exists for UBB as well, though.
