Allowing Java Tags

stanbunnyMember

Hey, I know you guys don't allow javascript in your templates since it's against ebay policy, but is there anyway- when creating a custom template- that auctiva will read it?

I just want to do image swaps and it's so annoying that it won't work in my custom template no matter how I try to arrange the code.

Any suggestions? thx, stan

Hi Stan,

Javascript isn't against eBay policy. In fact, eBay did discuss creating a certification process for widgets last year (for javascript), but recently decided to drop it (at least for now). I'm a member at the eBay Developers site, so I do try to track their discussions and I use the developers sandbox for testing.

I do Javascript for templates for members all the time. Are you doing the typical mouseover swaps code? If you want an assist, post the code at www.practicewriter.com and place the link it provides back to the Forum.

Thanks Danno. I will do that.

I am trying to do a mouse over image swap (swapping the main image when you roll over the thumbnail images).

It's so frustrating. I am very familiar with html but I suck at javascript.

Thanks for your help! Stan

Hi All,

There are some types of Java Script code that eBay does not allow on their site. If you are not familiar with eBay's Java Script policy, I recommend checking out the following page of eBay's help index: http://pages.ebay.com/help/pol...ting-javascript.html

Thanks Mike! I will read it.

I figured out how to make my images work. Sometimes you just gotta try new things

. Have a great day and I really appreciate you taking the time to email me and help me if necessary!

You're awesome.
