Yes, I know it's affecting the Ebid page, but that was out of choice, not mistake...

My point about using high specificity descendent selectors is still valid, and still works.

And yes I know I...

Toz, all you need to do is make sure you use descendent selectors, and make the name of your wrapper ID not "wrapper" - then your styles will only affect the CSS in your auction, not the Ebid page,...

That's a bit of a circular argument- if they'd been constructed with an external style sheet, then it would have worked.


I'm not sure what you mean by this, can you elaborate?



I use an...

Jonwash, I presume people won't be able to use WYSIWYG with my method, but it will be as easy as editing this sort of code:

<!-- The text you can edit has a space above and below it, and doesn't...

This would be useful, can it be added?

Can we have this category? I have three types of external hard drive enclosures, and it could also be used for DVD writer enclosures.

This is what it looks like on my screen - is it any less faded on your screens?
I can read right through it, but I don't have to because it only takes up a sixth of the vertical screen space on my...

I agree, that would be good idea.

I stopped selling on Ebid in April 2007, but have come back this month and my 150 plus listings will start tonight at 10 o'clock.

Can you elaborate a bit on your first post, Gail? I don't understand why (or how) the system is only accepting one form of postage.

For those of you who dislike it, does it turn transparent and stay that way, until you put your mouse over it? It's almost invisible on my screen until I put my mouse over it, and I really like it,...

Can we have a 'DVD Cases' category?

Hi Les, I'm sorry but I'm not sure what could be causing that problem. I think you'd better contact Ebid support.

The coloured stars on Ebay are a complete waste of time - nobody knows what each colour represents, so what purpose do the stars serve?

Re the rest of Ebid - I don't even notice the adverts, the...

I thought it looked really cool, and was just about to write a new post about how nice it was!

Hi Gothinica, the CSS file would be hosted on a free hosting site, by the user. I'll explain how to do all of that.
If Gazza decides to stop external CSS files I would be extremely surprised...

I prefer Ebid's design to Ebay's. Also, Ebid is a lot more forgiving of mistakes - if I find I want to change something in an auction, it's far quicker to do it on Ebid than on Ebay.
What...

Hi Booksgo, I know the outer border wouldn't change, that isn't possible. I thought you wanted to make the content of the auction itself a bit narrower so it would look like it used to. Can you put...

When I've done the template you'll be able to see what I mean, Gothinica, it will be just as easy to edit as the WYSIWYG editor, in terms of people changing the title, the subtitle, the description,...

Add the following code (in red) to the start of your auction:

<div style="width: 600px; margin: 0 auto;">
<center><b><font size=4>
None Dare Call It Treason


etc.etc.etc.
And add this bit...

In the title of the Ebid HTML on one of my auctions it says:

content="10 'Creation' 52x CD-Rs With Cases - SKU8273 Auction in the Blank Media,Drives, Storage &amp; Backup,Computing Categorty on...

Merlin, you keep saying you're here to sell, but part of that process involved creating auctions somehow or another. If your auctions had been set up to use CSS in the first place, you could have...

Wizbooks, can you show me a 'before' auction of yours, and one of your updated ones? I'd like to see what the problem is, but I'm only guessing which of your auctions are new and which are old at...

Do you mean the big space under the photo? I get that on my auctions too. I think it's a bug, I'm trying to work out what's causing it.

But your auctions look alright to me - give me another few...

I noticed this on the auction page, where the price is:

<span class="brownsmall">Shipping = £1.75 Total =£4.74</span>

The second equals sign after "Total" needs a space inserted after it, to...

I wanted to just type in 'SKU' in the My Defaults page, so I don't have to type it in every time I enter the SKU. Or should I leave out that and just put the number?

I'd like this option too, with a 'reject offers lower than £X.XX' box as well.

But I thought I could enter a default SKU number (or just 'SKU') in the template, to save me typing it out every time.

I've also noticed that the SKU number hasn't got a box to edit it in My Defaults.

I agree, and maybe a background image could be added using CSS, like a red tick or something similar, that would make it really clear.

I also think there is a lot of 'grey' text on the site, and...
