Was trying to schedule a few auctions, used a template I have used before with no problems, filled in all the required fields and clicked to schedule. Got an error message that said either I forgot to include information in a required field or I have an error with my listing.
Changed everything one at a time to find out the cause of my error was that I chose externally hosted images for my listing - which work fine normally and was a valid URL (hosted on my web server).
Turns out I had to write up the listing without images, schedule it, then go in to the saved scheduled listings, edit the listing to add the external images, click save, then when it asks me to confirm the save, I have to edit half my html in the description field before I can confirm because somewhere between the save and the confirm save it gets messy.
However, if I use auctiva hosted images, I don't have this problem, my description html never needs to be edited and it schedules fine.
What gives? This is a real PITA way to list an auction just because I have external images!
EDIT: I should mention that the images in question were for the gallery and the header image (or whatever its called... the one that shows up in the top left corner)
