I've noticed since adding the gallery to my auctions, that it is now necessary to scroll from left to right to view my auction layout. I prefer that buyers did not have to scroll the auction page - side to side. Is there a way to prevent the distortion of the layout, when adding the gallery?

Thanks

Hello,

Do you have your browser minimized? I just checked your listings on a minimized browser, and I'm not having to scroll to view your whole listing. If there is a specific auction you'd like me to check, please let me know the item number. Also, please let me know what browser you are viewing it on, and the version of your browser (for example if it is IE 6).

Regards,

Sonya

Hi Sonja,

I really don't know what "minimized browser" is I'm using IE 6 - I've never had any trouble viewing my auctions before, without scrolling.

Hello,

By minimized, I mean viewing your web browser with it smaller than your computer screen. Resizing the window, basically. I'm not finding any auctions that require scrolling, do you have a specific item number that I can check?

Regards,

Sonya

Here's one auction number - 6911098606
All my auctions require scrolling.

The Marquee Gallery was making my listing too wide, too. The only way I could get the look I wanted was to put the Gallery after the table. My table is set to 75% width, and the space taken by the borders, plus the cell padding, just wouldn't work properly.

OK, How do I get my sig to show the store link clickable? Or even better, can I use my Store name, and make it a clickable link?

Hello,

PaisleyBooks -- I am not having to scroll when viewing your listings, unless I make my browser very small. If you maximize it, do you have to scroll?

Onetrack -- To make a clickable link, you may use these tags:

<a href="http://www.nameofyourlink.com">Click here to visit my store</a>

Make sure that your link does not violate eBay's Terms of Service, as they are strict with how you do links.

Regards,

Sonya

Ummm.... not to butt in here but I just checked Paisley's auction #6911098606. I'm using IE with the screen maximized. I have a fairly small monitor - I think it's 15".

No scrolling necessary BUT the gallery is all red curtains except for four items. The weaving loom book, kitchen labels, pansy cross stitch and Andy Devine book.

Thought you'd maybe like to know what someone else is seeing. If not, please excuse the interruption, crack open a bottle of Two Buck Chuck and relax!

Your listing table on #6911098606 is wider than the Gallery, so if you're having a scrolling problem it seems unlikely that the Gallery code is doing it.
By the way, it did not scroll for me, but my screen resolution is 1152 by 864 pixels.

I had a similar problem. I wanted the gallery to be inside the template so I cut and pasted the code into Custom Listing Text sections. However this made the listing too wide.

SUGGESTION - Could there be an option for the number of photos in the display or a smaller version, that way we could determine ourselves how wide it is?

I'm pretty new to this, but I'm getting lots of help reading these message boards! Thanks to everyone!!!

Sorry for the delay guys. I will have to have someone look into this on Monday. We will not have any engineers here to fix this until Monday.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you!
