There is a new spoiler text option.

If you want to post the name of the Supercross winner without upsetting other viewers who haven't seen the race on video. The folks that want to read the name will have to highlight the text to read it.

Use the spoiler button above and place your text in between

It should look like the following:

Code: Select all

[spoiler]James Stewart wins the race![/spoiler]
James Stewart wins the race!


remember, highlight the black box to read the text. :D

Just want to point out that I can see the text on my screen (using chrome). it's very faint, though, and hard to see so my guess is that the background is set to a very slightly different colour than the text (not sure if that is how you did this, so just a guess). Sorry to spoil your spoiler...

Also, on an iPad, it doesn't go white when you select it (but I could probably cut and paste). Cool idea! :thumbsup:

I can see it also but it's meant for someone to be able to scan the page and not see the message. Can you honestly read it if you don't focus on it? :confused:
