eBay does not permit the use of several types of HTML and Javascript functions in member listings. Please refer to ‘Some Examples’ to ensure compliance with this policy.
Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:
Limits placed on account privileges
Loss of PowerSeller status
HTML or Javascript used to drop or read a cookie on any eBay page
HTML or Javascript that redirects the user from eBay to another page (such as the "replace" script)
HTML or Javascript that automatically calls remote scripts and pages (such as Javascript includes or iframes)
HTML or Javascript that changes registry entries, or otherwise writes to another's computer hard drive
HTML or Javascript that creates automatic "pop-ups" (exception - links that open in a new window when clicked on)
8HTML or Javascript that automatically posts to scripts in eBay
HTML or Javascript that automatically loads any binary program on another's computer (exception - Flash content)
HTML or Javascript that automatically overwrites any area on the listing outside of the item description area
Attempts to use the disabled scripts will return a very specific error message that begins: "Disallowed Javascript/HTML Syntax". Members will be prevented from listing the item or will be disabled at run-time. Any other Javascript error indicates a separate issue and is not related to the disabling of these scripts.
Why does eBay have this policy?
Some HTML or Javascript functions can be used for malicious purposes. To maximise the trust and safety of the eBay marketplace and community, eBay does not permit the use of HTML or Javascript functions specified in the “Examples” section.
