Hi all
Not sure what is going on with my PC(probably me :oops: ) but when i look at items on ebay i cant see any extra descriptions just a blank page scrolls down until i get to the usual payment bits and pieces.
Im running XP with IE8.
I only noticed it when i put my caravan for sale on ebay today
I can see all photos and standard item description but nothing of what i wrote,it just scrolls down a blank page.It does the same on all ebay items :? :?

Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong and how to fix it.
Any feedback from you if you can see my witterings would be grateful

Cheers

Colin

Hi Colin,

Usually browser problems are solved by clearing the cache but I noticed some ebay pages were very slow to show the description (using Firefox) so it might not be your pc that's the culprit.

HTH.

Hi Mike
Just tried ebay on my mobile and i can see descriptions ok so it must be something to do with my PC.May even have a go at loading up a different browser :)

Try it with Firefox. I use XP too :)
