<HTML> stands for Hyper Text Markup Language


The HTML tool lets you add and customize all kinds of extras for free on your eBay listings. The HTML tag in your eBay listing editor basically lets you Enable and Disable HTML mode when creating your eBay listings, so you can add images, tables, links, music, video and backgrounds into your eBay listings.


Creating Links:

<a href="url goes here">Text goes here</a>


To make a link that will open in a new window, use:
<a target="_blank" href="url goes here">Text goes here</a>


To make a link to an email address, use:
<a href="mailto:you@domain.com">email me</a>


To link an email with a subject, use:
<a href="mailto:you@domain.com?subject=Your Subject">email me</a>

To link images, use:
<a href="url goes here"><img src="pic url goes here"></a>


To link an image without a border, use:
