Strike-through attempt on a recent posting of mine did not work.
strike-through
If that is not the tag, what is?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
"View Source" and "Find..." appear to show the tags to be strike and /strike, so trying those each placed in square brackets gives:

[strike]strike-through[/strike]

so,... GOOD!
 
You can also click "Quote" to see the bbcode used in a post.

Excellent. Simple. Thanks.
Greg Bernhardt probably wanted me to have at least one way to search for the answer; so now there are two ways to find it if I forget.
 
you can also use the "[STRIKE]A[/STRIKE]" button just above the Reply box :wink:

Excellent. I did not even recognize it. I looked for something with an "s" in it and never looked carefully at this tool [strike]A[/strike].

The strike-through tag is also described in the F.A.Q. of this section.
