Default New spoiler function

I've been fiddling around with the boards again and have created a new spoiler function.

If you're posting a spoiler (which is defined as anything which would give away crucial plot details to anyone who hasn't seen the film yet) you must from now on put the spoilers between a (spoiler) tag. In other words, at the start of the spoiler, put (spoiler) and at the end put (/spoiler).

IMPORTANT: REPLACE THE ( ) ROUND BRACKETS ABOVE WITH SQUARE BRACKETS [ ]

So, as an example: (roll the mouse pointer over the text to show it)

***SPOILER WARNING***

spoiler's here: Ryuji is Asakawa's ex-husband and Yoichi is their son 

This only works on the standard "Fusion" black layout of the forum - if you're using any other, strange things will happen.

And, just to be clear, here is how I typed in the above.

I have to say thats yet another good idea Alex. Since that is how all the other critical formatting techniques work (italics, colours, URLs, etc) it makes sense to have spoiler warnings work the same way. Nice one!

yeah fair idea this one,,,as much as I love the tips and early heads up on films coming out (something this forum is so cool for),,,it'd be so harsh if you read some important part of the plot before ya got to view it,,,something which for asian films at least not many ppl tell me whats going on

Just a reminder asking people to use this please. Also I've made a quick change in the code so that the spoiler text now appears on a darker background, so no need for those pesky arrows any more!

 Cool, huh?
