Spoiler tag solution

I forgot to mention this in the earlier thread about spoiler tags. There's an extension called BBCode that has most of the tags people use on forums, accessed in the right click menu. You can also add custom tags, like spoilers, custom images, etc.
So if you want to use spoilers without having to type the tags out, just install the extension, and it has settings in the bbcode right click menu. Click on BBCode -> Settings, then on the Custom Tags tab.
Then just select 1 in "Number of Custom Tags" and there will be an area for you to label the tag. Just put in "Spoilers" in the Label box, and
And that's it. Just select the text you want to spoiler tag, and select the tag in the bbcode right click menu. If you want to add more tags, just select how many you want to make, and there's a wiki that shows you how to make different kinds.

Yeah, it won't install for me - it says it only works with Firefox versions 0.9 through 1.4 by default.
fake edit: You can modify the install.rdf within the .xpi to get it to install in Firefox 2.0. The site linked in the OP explains how to do this...I got it working.
Nevermind. He tells you have to change the version number at the bottom of the page.

This is very useful. Thanks!
You know, every ontopic forum has a rule about abusing realspoiler tags.
OK. Now run along to your other forum and post about how I don't care what you think.
It is quite obvious to anyone with even a modicum of sense that I was not abusing the tag. I was demonstrating that it worked with the aforementioned Firefox extension.
I mean, this one seemed really promising in the beginning. It was someone being helpful, and showing people something neat (thank you, Mighty J).
So, the next person who posts something which is not constructive in this thread is getting banned, and I swear I'm not going to be nice about it and just lock it this time.
Alright, I'll stop shilling extensions now.
Awesome. Also works for colors that aren't listed in the drop down.
And besides, it's fun to laugh at new people who post stuff like thinking that they've limed it. Or they get confused.
This will probably come in handy the next time someone is making a thread littered with spoilers, though, and I guess it's nice to know it's around. There is a thread I've been thinking of making for a while where it could really come in handy.
Does anyone know of any similar extensions for Opera that operate the same way? Firefox is too resource intensive (that's the polite way of putting it) for my machine.

Are we done with this thread? It looks like we're basically done. I'm gonna lock it--if it needs to be unlocked for any serious reason, let me know.
