Hey everyone!
It's been a while since I've bee heavy into html, so I hope I'm not making a stupid mistake and wasting your time. I've created (with the help of some code generators, etc.) a basic layout for my auctions on ebay. Some sellers have figured out how to customize the look of their auction pages for the items they are selling. I've tried using a few ebay simulators-in which you enter your html code and it simulates how it should look on ebay, and when I enter my code and submit it, everything looks fine. But when it comes time to actually enter it into the auctions page on ebay-perhaps my problem is where I'm putting my code?-it all shows up as text, no html magic or anything. Here is a copy of my code, let me know if I'm leaving a crucial piece out. Thank you!!! Haley ***************************HTML CODE********************************\ CODE <table width=100% cellpadding=60% cellspacing=0 bgcolor=#4B0082 align=center background=http://www.ambassadorboard.net/hosting/backs/purple.jpg>
<tr> <td> <align=center> <img src=http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm150/haleymariemackenzie/Ebay/TKVbanner.jpg alt=banner width=100%> <table width=100% bordercolor=#000000 cellpadding=20 cellspacing=0 bgcolor=#9966cc> <tr> <td><font color=#330099> <h2 style="font-family: 'arial'; font-size: 24px" align=center> Soft Slouch Vintage Leather Suede Cowboy/girl Boots </h2> <div align=center> <p style="font-family: 'arial'; font-size: 24px"> </p> Genuine Soft Leather Boots, Women's Size___ These boots are a dead ringer with their metal-tiped toes and heels with gold eagle detail, and the black leather toe, heel, and upper rims will be sure to hide all the boot-scootin' you'll be up to. They're also great for dancing because of the soft, slouchy brown leather suede that they're made of, unlike most stiff old boots. They show small signs of wear, but are in excellent condition. I just had them polished, so you'll be walking tall in these boots, and believe me, THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR WALKING! <br><br> </div> <div align=justify> <p style="font-family: 'arial'; font-size: 18px"> </p> </div> <div align=justify> <p style="font-family: 'arial'; font-size: 18px"> </p> </div> <div align=justify> <p style="font-family: 'arial'; font-size: 18px"> </p> </div> </td></tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table>
Reason for edit: please put codes in codeboxes. thanks :) -natalia

AHA! I was making a stupid mistake...I didn't see the option to switch to HTML instead of the default, Standard.
Silly me I knew it was something stupid like that thanks for your time! |
