Dear hubby is trying to create his auctions by creating a web site and then putting the URL into the ebay auction. What's supposed to happen is that the description is a direct link to the web site that is hosted elsewhere, just like image hosting. Well it looks like we are doing something wrong because we can't get it to work. We've tried putting the URL into the image area of the auction and we've tried to put it with the <img src=...> stuff into the description. What are we missing?

Thanks!!!

Sj,

Hi, how are you? You will want to do the following if you plan link a Picture to a URL. In the "a href" part, you will put your URL address. In the "img src" part, put the name of the file (For example, "coolnfc.jpg". Here it goes.


<a href="http://www..com"><img src="(name of the file)"></a>

To add an image to an HTML page use the following format:

<img src=http://www.yourURLhere/yourimagehere.jpg>

To add a web link use:

<A HREF="http://yourURLhere" TARGET=_BLANK>
YourLinkDescriptionHere</A>

The TARGET=_BLANK portion will cause the user's browser to spawn a new window so that they don't lose your auction page.
