You can click again on the region to collapse it, but it's a little tricky -- it has to be unstyled (or, more strictly, styled by parent regions), since we didn't want to interfere with people clicking on URLs and whatnot.
So,
this is spoiler text that has been revealed; just click on it again to close it.
And,
this is also text that will close again when you click on it.
However,
this won't close when you click on it, since it has a new style on it
One workaround is to
(collapse) put a collapse target at the beginning, or something

Thank you so much for the spoiler tags! 4laugh
Been waiting for them for a long time!
Now I can condense large posts down into a spoiler for users who only want TL;DRs!
:::EDIT:::
Derp, turns out I had a minor coding issue, causing the spoiler tag
to somehow magically end prematurely. All is fixed, as it was on my end. sweatdrop
I can't even begin to show my appreciation for the tags finally being created!
I did expect them to be closeable/collapsible, but for right now,
just refreshing the page does the job well enough. 3nodding
Pan - collapsing is great, but I never would have known about it except for this thread. Will you post a "How to use spoiler tags" sticky in the Entertainment and Anime/Manga/Comics forums?

You sir, just blew my mind! Thank you!

Can we expect spoiler buttons added to the post styling bar eventually?
Yeah, if it would be helpful we can definitely have someone write something up.

Yeah, we can take a look at that if people are using spoilers a lot.

Yeah, it's a little confusing. For this purpose, any new BBCode tag -- whether bold, images, images, size changes, or whatnot -- is considered a new style.
For example:
Here's a spoiler that cannot be collapsed by clicking on the image (since img is another bbcode tag). However, you can click on this text to collapse it.
Anything that is not inside another bbcode tag should work fine, whether or not it's at the beginning of the block -- so, you can click on this text as well.

Wait, would image codes be considered as a "style" then? My computer code terminology is really really limited... Anyway, I am loving this! xD

That's... very interesting... I think I'm going to have a lot of fun with this one. emotion_dowant

Yeah, it would be really helpful! I suspect that the spoiler tag will go unused if people don't know how to use it properly, and it's too good a feature for that! And directions would be helpful for new users too.
