Hey!

I am trying to place a "Tell A Friend" PHP form into an eBay page, by use of the following code but when I do, and I click "Save Changes to Your Auction", instead of being taken to an eBay conformation page, it seems to process the PHP script I am using instead and it takes me to the PHP conformation page.

The PHP script should be a form, and you fill in details, and it changes the page's content to "Message has been sent" or some other conformation when you click the "Send Message" button.

The eBay page should load a conformation of "Auction Saved" or whatever once I have submitted this auction, but when i click "Save Auction", it takes me to this PHP Script's conformation screen, and does not submit the details into eBay's servers. I assume the PHP submit is over riding the eBay one!?

Just to confirm, I am placing a form inside my eBay auction listing, which uses the PHP script in its "ACTION=" line.

I assume this is a conflict between the two forms. Are there any common troubles relating to this issue? Thanks.

By the way I have never used PHP before, and have little experience with scripting languages. But I know enough to get by ! USUALLY!!

The auction page is here: (Mp3 player run over by 12 trucks) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5873737984
The script is here: http://members.lycos.co.uk/hhobba777/share.php.txt
And the section of my eBay auction where I am trying to place my form is using the following HTML: http://members.lycos.co.uk/hhobba777/table.html.txt

i cant see any blatant outright syntax errors in there, i havent read it all character for character though, it may be the eBay simply doesnt allow for such PHP calls to be made in item descriptions. They have to draw the line soemwhere....
