Just seeing if a double depth spoiler won’t show on mouseover.

ETA: Doesn’t work, content still shows up.

Yes it does! It says _moon base discovered_, right?

Text in [brackets] won’t show in the mouseover. If you want it spoilered as well, I think it works to put brackets inside the spoiler tags.

Looking forward to discussing _The Last Jedi_, are we? 😃

As a side note, that trick can be used to make some interesting mouseovers that have nothing to do with the actual post. Kind of like those Mad Magazine fold-the-page things long ago.

I’m not able to see any of the spoilers in this thread with a mouseover (assuming I’m doing it correctly). I tried in Chrome and Edge.

When using Sultantheme’s Responsive vB3-blue, I can see the spoiler without a mouseover in TroutMan’s spoiler in post 4, but not in post 3.

This is referring to the text that shows on the [main forum page](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/forumdisplay.php?f=2) when you mouseover the thread title.

^ Ah, in that case, never mind.

However, what I brought up regarding Sultantheme’s Responsive vB3-blue is an issue that should be fixed.

Aw, man, I was specifically trying to avoid learning test! Now you’ve gone and ruined it.
