    I think Sythe should implement [spoiler] tags.

    [spoiler=You write the title here]
    And you write whatever you'd like inside the box here. They're exactly as easy to write as quote tags.
    [/spoiler]
    As an example, part of the Rules page might be presented this way.

    I've edited the typical spoiler code to allow custom titles, adjust to Sythe's color scheme, etc.


    <div style="margin: 5px;">
    <font color="white"><b>{option}</b></font></color> <input value="Show" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 45px; font-size: 10px;" onclick="if(this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != 'inline')
    { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'inline'; this.innerText = ''; this.value = 'Hide'; }
    else
    { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerText = ''; this.value='Show'; }" type="button">
    </div>
    <div class="alt2" style="border: 1px inset; padding: 6px;">
    <div class="spoiler" style="display: none;"><font color="white"> {param} </font></div>
    </div>

    Feel free to suggest any cosmetic changes and I'll try 'em out.

    Hrm we used to have spoiler tags but people found ways to exploit them and cause trouble... I'm not sure if we'd want to add the spoiler tag back given what happened last time.

    I would love this because I am an active member of the GFX section and it would help keep our threads organized and cleaner.

    Shoot. What sort of exploit was it? If it caused cosmetic then infractions might be okay. If it was malicious it obviously isn't worth the trouble.

    Out of curiosity.

    It was malicious. People were sticking redirect tags in them and causing redirection off the site. It was a mess.

    I think it looks particularly nice with rounded edges.

    Ah. I'm surprised that's possible. It seems like quotes would have the same structure; what sets the two apart?

    If there was some way to work around the problem, then I would definitely support the addition. I think they would benefit a lot of people in the GFX section, and help keep other threads organized as well.

    Due to the redirections and possible hacking/java drive-by's, I am not in support of this unless that "kink" can be worked out.

    This statement changed my mind from when i read the thread title because i supported it at first.

    I guess if it's malicious, no support :/

    I'd like it, but also more details on what the exploit involved. Was it made so that clicking the Show button sent you to another site?

    If we can work out a way to work around the exploits, it will be re-added :3
