I'm not that great with computers so I am asking how to make a "click on this link to see my other auctions". What is the code so I can cut and paste it onto my listing template.

<A href="put the entire url, here, with quotes around it">put here what you want the link to say ie: click here to see my other auctions</A>
add the < > where shown, as shown.

For those who would like to see how to do most anything on a Web page, use the Source control under View (IE--there's one for Netscape too but I'm not using that browser)
This shows the HTML used on the page. The basic trick is to locate the code that does what you are interested in doing. In this case it will have an expression like "click here to see my other auctions" You just substitute your URL and expression.
I make up trial pages and test them before using new things. Always always test! Dead links equal lost opportunities.

This is my HTML for one of the links in my listings.
<a href=http://www.theURLtoyourauctions.com>My other auctions</a>
Substitute "my other auctions" with whatever you want your clickable to say. PS: Don't forget the end tag </a>. A friend of mine couldn't remember it and put all kinds of different symbols in with the "a" and came up with all kinds of funky stuff.
A great place to learn basic HTML is Pongo.com. Hope this helps!
