ebay not allowing this javascript

[j-marvin]

hi-

according to ebay policy on javascript i cant
eBay does not permit the use of the following types of JavaScript
functions in your item listing:

Scripts used to drop or read a cookie on any eBay page
Scripts that redirect the user from eBay to another page (such as the
"replace" script)
JavaScript Include and iframe

so in this case i believe it thinks i am redirecting to another page.
the offending javascript is after <td> <A HREF="#" ----from onclick to
----->

my pictures are at pongo image hosting. what this code does is make
small pictures behave like thumbnails and when you click on the
thumbnail opens up a larger image of the picture (which is really
another picture).

when i preview it in the ebay html editor it works fine but i think
the security is zapping me.

any tips on what i can do???

thanks,
jim

Probably. That's effectively what window.open does if you give the
current window the same name as the second parameter in your
window.open call.

That's easy. Use a regular link.

thanks steve.
you my friend are a genius.
it was so simple. you can tell i do VERY little xhtml code at the moment.
they were using window.open in an example i found and i thought i "had" to
have it. guess not. i was working on this for a co-worker who asked me.
the old example i had worked fine not on ebay but because of the java
script with window.open it gave the ebay java security system a fit.
this is another example of always test test and test again in a real
setting.

greatly appreciated :-)
