Can't post to ebay, keep getting red 'description'

Rutlandbelle,

The error returned by the error check for these listings is "There is an image in your description that is located on your computer. To avoid this, insert all images using the image button of the description editor." The image it is referring to is "img alt="" src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Lorna/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/ebay/set8_6.gif"", which can be found in your description html.

Since this image is located on your computer, people who view your listings from computers other than yours will not be able to see this image.

To avoid this problem, please insert this image using the "Freetive Image" button on the editor(it has an icon of a mountain on it).

I received an email yesterday from another Auctiva member having the same problem.

I advised using Firefox/Mozilla, Opera or Advanced Browser.

I heard from the last night stating the now Auctiva flies.

Perhaps if everyone using IE will give another browser a chance they'll find thats the solution.

My Best,
Donna

Try using another browser and see how it works for you.

Good Luck,
Donna

What an EXCELLENT idea. I normally do that when other sites are acting dumb, but in all honesty, it had never occured to me to try it with Auctiva! Lord... (shaking my head).
Maybe THAT will solve MY error problems too. I've got Netscape installed on here, as well as a different IE type browser, (2 or 3 of those) and somewhere out there I think Mozilla may still be on here. Thanks for an excellent suggestion Donna. I was just HOPING someone would suggest something that made sense tonight- !

Update! Thank you Donna- it worked for me! My first auction of the evening appears to have just went up smoothly! Opened up Netscape and used Auctiva there- so far so good!

SO Glad it worked for you.

You're about the gazillionth person I've noted this to.

I think it's in the sticky on one of the threads..but when a person is frustrated, they don't look at the threads and that's understandable.

I've found using Mozilla/Opera/Advanced Browser is just wonderful with this service.

I can use IE, my choice is not to.

Glad to be of service!
Take care, Donna
