Hi,

Has anyone else noticed the need to scroll (or in IE the loss off even that) in the 'Item description' and 'about me' sections on auction pages?

I have contacted support but wanted to know if others have since this since the 'server maintenance' started.

Same here, and what's more, featured items are gone too!

hi tom and AS,
i don't think this is a glitch but a designed software change. and a smart one too. looks like it will allow us to input more data into these areas when we post an auction. but then they might have left something out of the gumbo pot on mine.

amities,

Hi,

I already place significant HTML code into this area. They appear to have made a minor adjustment during the day which 'opens' the area if the scroll bar is attempted to be used. Unfortunately this relies on customers to 'observe' that there is a scroll bar. Even elementary web designers straight out of College know that this is poor design and will lead to many people missing crucial information. In my case it means they will miss for example statements about thins on older material and my extra scans which show specifics in detail. The area must 'expand' to meet our usage (which is what it did and designed my code to match) so that customers are presented with all of the information upfront.

Have a look at my auctions as to how they are presented.

What is more worrying is that I worked with Delcampe to ensure that the code and presentation was okay. By doing what they appear to have done I am forced to withdraw some 1000 auctions to re-submit with new code which needs to be written to meet their new poorer format.

Maybe one day I will get a reply from support about this. If I haven't heard by Sunday I am in Brussels next week so will drop in to see them.

Regards

Thomas
