Hey DJ (or whoever),
The spoiler tag doesn't work if you have an apostrophe (') in the pop-up text. It's a javascript problem. When you submit something with an odd number of apostrophies it will simply not pop-up.

I noticed, however that if you use a backtick (`) character it will work just fine. Think you can edit the pop-up script code to do a simple transliteration (substitution of the back-tick for any apostrophies)?

It'd need quite a bit of tweaking - the tags are made by entering html and variable names into a vB control panel, instead of modifying the parser script. I might take a look later though. (ie. hard code spoiler tags into the parser). I wonder whether /' would work

Yeah, that's tricky. The real problem is that you have to give straight text to the pop-up window. No & #039; stuff will work.
*sigh*
As for escaping it, my guess is you would need to backslash it: \'

Well, that explains why mine never worked...-_- I thought I was braindead or something.

BOOSTER: What? THIS thing's a cake?

(in response to an interview question "Do you have a pet peeve having to do with this biz?")
People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.
