ysth,
Unfortunately, the author is unable to actually see their own spoiler tags so I didn't know they were all being revealed at once. I am glad this is supposed to be fixed now (demerphq++) but I had to ask someone in the CB just to verify the spoiler tags even worked.

Cheers - L~R

    I don't know how you jumped to that conclusion, but that doesn't match my own experience nor my impression of the implementing code, so I'm pretty certain you are wrong. You can't do much with spoiler tags during preview, of course.

      I wonder if some people are getting confused because there are multiple spoiler modes that can be chosen from Display Settings. The stuff I added would affect only users with 'link' spoiler mode selected.

      tye,
      I jumped to that conclusion because I assumed my spoiler settings hadn't mysteriously changed without my knowledge. Now that it is once again at "link", I can see I drew the wrong conclusion. I am still at a loss as to how my setting was changed though. Thanks for the friendly reminder to always check assumptions.
