[spoiler] not working [/spoiler]

The button for it is gone and all spoilers are visible.  I'm pretty sure this isn't deliberate.

I suspect it has something to do with the the site update last night. Someone probably forgot to click a box.

It has to be reinstalled every time I do an upgrade. Pain in the ass.

It's back now, and with a new feature. :)

I'm a bit worried about the accidental seeing of spoilers because of the new feature.
But, we shall see how it plays out.

Yeah, I'm not *entirely* convinced, but it's the sort of thing that highlights and unhighlights fast enough that I think if I accidentally hovered over something, I could UNhover pretty fast.

That question is off topic for this thread. Start a new one -- or go and look at the post I made in Mac's.

I like this spoiler code much better than the old one! The old one wasn't 'bad' but it could get annoying when the last word or 2 of the spoiler didn't want to highlight with the rest or when on a laptop with default mouse, etc.
