Spoiler tag not working right?

[Red Dragon]

*** SPOILERS ***
Instead of just mouse-overing the text it seems that I have to highlight what is in the spoiler tag.

I am just running IE8, which has always worked for me in the past. As far as I know I haven't messed with the settings.

Is this working for anyone else? Or is this only me kind of thing?

No, I noticed it too earlier. By the way, how does one make a spoiler tag anyway? I never learned.

Must be the fault of the social groups.

It was before the social groups, I thought it was because of Valks mettling but it's not fixed yet so I dunno.

I've been having this happen as of yesterday as well. I use IE7 which I've been using all along. Is it happening with Firefox too? Also, it appears any page with a spoiler tag on it shows "Error on page." in the status bar. Clicking on it for the error pop up shows that "rpgmpav_alt1_rule is undefined."

I'm running Firefox and I have to highlight the spoiler to see it as well.

I'm playing around with the spoiler tag. its not finished yet. I dont want it to just be a mouse-over type thing. so yeah, I made it so you have to highlight the text. might also go with a collapsable thing where you have to click a button to have the spoilers show.

I'm trying to make the tag idiot-proof, for your protection.

and yeah, it doesnt work in IE yet. sorry!

The collapsible button thingy is cool, I've seen it done at one or two sites.

Re: Spoiler tag not working right?

Im fine with this set up. The mouse-over one didn't work properly if you directly linked to a post that had the tag anyhow.

It's too bad though that if you roll-over a topic you see all the BBC coding as well. So you'll still see <spoiler>Harry kills a turtle<\spoiler> anyhow.
