StrikethroughJS

Manipulate plain text strikethrough chars in Javascript.

Why?

Strikethrough is represented by words with a horizontal line through their center. It implies that the text is wrong and was recently deleted or marked as such. Unlike the HTML s tag, this strikethrough text will work when you copy paste it in to another location. That’s because the strikethrough characters generated by this tool are in plain text. - Saijo George

This library allows you to get rid of this because some fonts doesn't support strikethrough. You will be able to apply strikethrough another way (e.g., in CSS: text-decoration: line-through;)
