eBay Related QuestionsRemember, your HTML for your Auctions, "me" Page or Ebay Stores is only a PORTION of an already coded HTML page. Below are common questions that frequently arise on the eBays Photos & HTML discussion board. If you have other questions regarding HTML, feel free to contact us. If you are having problems with your photos, we strongly suggest you post your question there. The board is frequented by very experienced and helpful fellow eBayers that are a wealth of information! What editor do I need to code my HTML? A word processor. We strongly suggest that you use "Notepad" or "Simple Text". You can easily create HTML files using a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor like Dreamweaver, FrontPage, or Adobe PageMill, but you have to be careful, as some of these editors add a lot of code that is program specific and tend to create bloated code. If you truly want to learn and understand how to code HTML, we recommend that you use a plain text editor. Microsoft Word should NEVER be used to create or edit your Web pages. See our Links page for software recommendations. What graphic editor do I need to work with my photos? We recommend downloading Irfanview. It is very easy to use and works well for a freeware program. You may have image editing software that came with your digital camera or scanner. As long as you can control photo compression, crop and resize, those should work fine also. What tags should I not use on eBay? The tags you should not use in your eBay auctions, "me" page or store front include: <html>, <head>, <title>, <meta>, <base>, <basefont>, <style>, <link>, <body>. The only code that you should use is the HTML you would normally insert between the <body></body> tags. Again, the code you insert on eBay is being inserted into an already completed Web page. Using the listed tags more than once in a Web document can cause rendering problems with some browser, and is just bad bad coding. How come my images show up as a How do I keep others from stealing my images and text? Many ask about the "No-Right-Click" JavaScript to keep their images and copy protected. This simply DOES NOT WORK. Some browsers do not even recognize the JavaScript. The best advice we can give is to "watermark" your photos. Watermarking is lightly overlaying your name over the photo in an image editing program. How do I use my HTML for my Auctions? The general rule is to paste your HTML into the description box that says "ENTER YOUR OWN HTML". If you are using Internet Explorer, this option if available. Firefox and Netscape does not give you this option, and you just need to paste your HTML into the plain box under "Item Description"/ |
