Strike throughs

  • Hi. I used to be able to create a strikethrough effect (<strike>CONTENT</strike>) but now i can’t seem to be able to do so. I do not have any problems with this previously, but I do not know what’s wrong.

    Every time I save my content, the strikethrough words just appear unstriked.

    Can anyone help me with this?

    In addition, how can I blog in chinese or with symbols (i.e. ?)?

    Thanks a million.

  • you can’t use strike anymore, it’s not supported anymore.

    for chinese symbols, you should be able to just add them

    I have tried adding the chinese characters but it turns out as ???? after i published it.

    You can still use strikethrough if you want to, you’ll just have to switch to a CSS solution.

    “Line through” is the CSS equivalent..

    You can do that as inline CSS if you want..

    <span style="text-decoration:line-through">my strikethough text</span>

    You can also use the HTML tag <del>

    Which appears to replace the deprecated ‘s’ and ‘strike’ tags per the link @jdingman provided

    ditto cais

    I just tried using the strike through btn in the RTE and when I ‘view post’ or even just switch to ‘html view’, the formatting is lost. However, if I add <del> tags, it works just fine.

    So how can we get the btn in the RTE to use those tags instead???

    I used the <del> </del> in HTML mode view and it worked for me too.

    I agree with alpha_llama’s post. Why just not integrate it to use “del” tags?
