HI happy with my very first shipment

Hi Regina i tried to view that item # Ebay says it does not exist? Also tried to look on Ebay for you as a seller. Says you are in Germany and you have nothing for sale? Is your screenname here different from your Ebay user name?

Hi how silly of me just saw that i left off a couple of numbers from my name lol its reginadp53 i tried the number and it worked sorry ...u can try again if you wish

Hi also i left a 6 off the number see how newbie i am 190133626666

Hi regina I really like the format of your auctions. They have a very eye catching setup. Ilove the .gif animated skull, One thing I do see that you need to correct is your wording is stretching across the screen and you cannot read your item description without scrolling sideways. I have had this happen with some of my auctions before but usually because of having a textbox inserted and it being to wide.This can really hurt a items bidding I have found.Possibly someone can give you an idea what you did. I am sure it is something in your HTML but deconstructing HTML is sometimes such a hassle. Good Luck Steve

Hi steve thanks for looking im glad you like my animations....im only new to auctiva have no idea how to fix that problem html do know what it means but no idea how to do it...so naive thanks again

Hi steve how come when i go look at my listings i dont have to scroll sideways to read it? thanks again for taking time to look.

Regina this is really strange!! I use 2 different browsers Firefox and Internet Explorer 7. Recently I have been having a problem with Firefox hanging on Ebay pages so have begun using IE 7 for Ebay. I decided to check your auction using Firefox and it is perfect. Reopened it in Internet Explorer and it is a mess!! ON IE 7 your script at the top appears like this::
ARMANI LONG SLEEVE EAGLE SHIRT....AUTHENTIC RRP
$395

On Firefox it appears this way!!


ARMANI LONG SLEEVE
EAGLE SHIRT....AUTHENTIC
RRP $395
I am stumped right now. It has to be the way that Internet Explorer is interpreting the HTML in your auctions. They all appear this way to me the words run across the screen and make it so I have to scroll sideways to view all your description. What browser do you use and what version? Is anyone else out there that is reading this post seeing the same thing I am or am I having a problem with my browser ?

I ran across someone on another post on here who is having a problem with his storefront not scrolling. I checked it in IE7 and it was not working in Firefox it was! Very Strange! Here is the linkWhy isn't my store window working... for that post

Hi im using firefox 2.0 I didnt not realise that people who open with internet explorer are not viewing my listings properly..This sucks I never use IE so had no idea... thanks for letting me know there seems nothing i can do about that..let me know what u find out thanks

Me again...when i tried to put in ebays counter on my listing for jeans that i just added today it would not let me...got a message box that said ebay refuses your listing as they have put a restriction on how many items i have for sale in a 7 day period Wrote an email to them to explain to me what the H is going on, no reply as yet...but when i go to view my scrolling gallery its there. please explain that one to me? then i get a automated email from ebay stating my listing is there totally confused.....still no counter?

Hi Regina unsure what that message is all about. Was it a popup message or an email? If it was an email be careful. Only respond to messages from Ebay from My Ebay Messages not your email. I assume you already know this but it is so easy to get blindsided.Why do you want ebays counter? Sellathon counter is free and seems to be working OK now. As for the IE7 problem I would suggest filing a support request with Auctiva. You really need to get this fixed as viewing your auctions with Internet EXPLODER(SIC)is very difficult and will probably chase some bidders away hurting your profits! Hard enough to make money on here without problems.

Regina possibly try using a new template other than the dark movie one you are using to do your listings. Possibly there is some sort of bug in that template that is giving the Internet Explorer problem? If you have one of your previous listings you can relist go in and change the template and keep all your other things as is. See if that may work? Let me know if you need any other help. I usually check posts quite a bit but if you need to you may email me @ TazSLH@gmail.com . I cannot understand why no one else is trying to help you here on these posts. Usually help is abundant on here. By the way I checked your auctions on my work computer with IE6 and they appear the same way. I did spend about 20 minutes trying to searching through your HTML source code to see if I could locate the problem. Could not locate it. It almost has to be a table width, width or Java problem. My thought is Java since it appears fine in Firefox and Firefox is alot less buggy with Java

Hi Regina,

Looked at your 190133626666 listing and in IE7.0 one has to scroll back and forth to see your listing.

In FireFox that is not the case it fits just fine in the window.

So, what you need to do is send a Support Ticket to Auctiva and get their expert advice on how to resolve this. Go to Help > scroll to the bottom and click on "file a support request." Tell them the problem and you will get the help you need.

P.S. I guess it is one's choice/taste, but the skull thingy and snake is a real turn-off to me. But, that is just me.

Thanks steve and James for your input...I actually had a look with IE and was horrified even my texting is all over the place..Am not impressed at all...Have filed a support request with activa and waiting for a reply...Do u think i should be doing my listings with IE instead of Firefox?.....Steve the message i was receiving and still am with ebay is a pop up window.still no response from ebay as to what is happening..and my jeans are listed...As to your comments James about my skulls and snakes...The skulls are on the template..and personally i love it..The snake was my gif...and i think its cool..going by the number of people actually bidding on the armani shirt...and i still have nearly 5 days to go im extremely pleased..being my first shipment..first time on auctiva..cant be happier...but i do appreciate your input and if we all had the same taste we would be a boring world.... to each his own. Steve thanks for all the time u have spent trying to figure out what is going on with IE...you are just great..and i was surprised also that no one was trying to fix my problem..except for you and now James..oh well still love this lounge....has been helpful...Hope to hear from you soon...and I will let you know when i get an email from Auctiva about this problem... great to have nice people on here who listen and respond...

Hi Regina glad I could help. I am happy you looked at your auctions in IE.I WOULD HAVE BEEN HORRIFIED IF THEY WERE MY AUCTIONS AND I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT IT! Hopefully Auctiva gets you straightened out soon. I do not know if posting with IE would help or or not? Truthfully I do not believe it will.Keep me posted and good luck

Hi Regina,

I totally agree. Keep us posted, it will be interesting to everyone the response you get back from tech.

Hi Regina...have to agree, the template is too dark. I am a "senior citizen" and find the magenta color hard to read.....BUT, if you are through using that yummmmmy model, send him my way!

Hi tennisntrains....trial and error only way we will learn..are u using IE or firefox? as u see by all the messages that i have been receiving IE is causing me many problems...as for the model...think ill keep him for a little while longer...nice to wake up to...

I'm using IE....I'm not familiar with foxfire...I'm not computer smart and IE came with this computer....don't want to take the chance of goofing things up any more than they already are now by putting foxfire on too.

Guess I couldn't use that model anyway...I have been selling baby things lately and am really sure that he couldn't fit into any of them!

Tenny

Hi steve,brojames and tennisntrains...how are u all been a while..anyways finally got a report from auctiva..stating that it could actually be the text that im using...they had a look on two monitors..and are pretty sure its the text...they suggested i use their default text next time...so i will....The model is still hanging around for another day....will miss him... Thanks again guys for all your help....love this forum...good luck to everyone on here....

Hey Regina glad to hear that you may have figured the problem out with Auctivas help. I am having a small problem with my listings I do at work. I sell on Ebay Motors under my work screenname. So i get a double dose of problems. LOL

Hi Regina it was just a small HTML table width problem, on item #280138088671 . I think it is fixed now. Just a slight modification in the V.I.N decoder I use. Thanks Steve
