  1. Hi:

    Somewhat new to setting up a blogger blog. I copied the text into the HTML part of the blog setup. The button shows when I go back to compose, but when I click on it, nothing opens..tried a few times..I have pasted into HTML with links for youtube and google maps, so I think I am doing that part right. Any suggestions for getting button to work?

  4. Thank you for this code! I'm using it in my blog and it works great. I have one question. When I click the show/hide button when I want to hide text after I have shown it, I lose my place on the page. It automatically scrolls me down the page. I have several show/hide buttons so I would like the reader to stay in the same place so they don't have to search for where they just were. Do you have any ideas to make this work? Thanks!

  7. I tried many times over few hours. Very valuable widget if it could work. I got simple template with Blogger. I am getting every time button, but not my text, No -ADD YOUR HIDDEN CONTENT HERE . Not visible. Button unresponsive. If somebody could check or maybe give other variation of this read more/hide widget it would be great. Thanks.

  10. Thank you! This is so helpful to me as a newbie blogger.

    One question: if I want two separate spoilers, how do I do it? I tried to just copy the code twice, around each of my spoilers, but when I click on the button only one shows up.
