What use is the"Form"

Hi- couple of questions. Are you talking about ebay listing? or auctiva ecommerce?

If it is ebay I can't seem to find "form" on the listing. Can you give a little more info. and I will see if I can help you. If it is commerce I am clueless.

When making an eBay listing using Auctiva, (Not auctiva ecommerce) there are a whole pile of Icons in the "Item Description" Box, including Bold, Italics, Underline, Font Size and Colour etc. On the Top Row, 8th from the right is an icon that when you hover over describes itself as "Form". I can't find any information relating to its use.

Thanks in advance for your help

I've never actually used this function in listings, though in other word processing software, "tables" and "forms" often go hand in hand. You can use a "form" to achieve things like choice selection, opinion polls, etc. I don't think there would be anyway this function could actually translate over to eBay, though I could be wrong.

If you look at my listings, you will notice that I do actually have a "table" inserted into my listing form, which I use for my store branding, and which links to my other listings. It functions as a divider between the listing details, and my normal seller details. (the fine print)

This can assist you in accomplishing formatting in your listings. Say for instance you wanted to have two different columns of text. You would first "insert" the table, and then you are given the option of how many rows and columns it should have.

Hi, and thanks for your reply. we use the table function in our listings to display the "real" shop opening times:

But we're looking to get more variety in our listings and so exploring all Auctiva options. Look forward to further suggestions.
