Title: HTML Screwed up after relisting
Post by www.blitzday.com on 11/30/04 at 09:13:54

Hi Dieter,

I got the following mail and I noticed it to. Is there a solution?

Hi Freddy,

I have attached a sample below. It is quite odd, at times, even though it looks scrambled, when I go to the preview screen, the text comes out alright. Unfortunately, most of the time, the text comes out looking scrambled even at the preview screen and I have to remedy the description before I can relist. This is difficult especially if there are many items. Hope you can help!

Thanks and regards

This has happened to me before, too.
Copie HTML code from an ASCII related editor to an utf8 related editor
or
copie HTML code from an utf8 related editor to an ASCII related editor
and the same will happen to you.

Sorry - I haven't noticed the word "relisting"

Go to
sub new
search the sub for this
Code:

$inc = form_amt_dec($inc);
$start_price = form_amt_dec($start_price);
$buy_it = form_amt_dec($buy_it);
$reserve = form_amt_dec($reserve);
($key = $form{'REPOST'}) =~ s/\d{10}$//;
$cat = $category{$key};
$desc = disable_html($desc);

and replace
Code:

$desc = disable_html($desc);

with
Code:

$desc = enable_html($desc);
