That would be me... I hate not sharing, so it was a compromise.
Another "spoiler"
And I even missed something in my first spoiler, so it didn't help much.

Interesting idea. Never thought of that.

Doesn't seem like that hard. I'm betting anything vB has a "look for dem tags" when creating posts for pages, so all you'd have to do is drop in a quick regex which replaces [spoiler]that hidden text[/spoiler] with <span>Spoiler: that hidden text</span> and some CSS to either make it match the background (which, for the interested, is 0xf1f1f1), or maybe expand down on a hover over "spoiler." (Easy enough to do through CSS)
But, we don't want to distract Brandon from CD-Media, do we...
Goes to get a sledge hammer.
