Firefox and eBay! User settings???

I recently tried Firefox and all seemed wel, until I tried to list an item on eBay and the only option for inputting text (the main body of the advert) was via HTML, the "normal" input option would not show.
I have encountered the same problem when trying a MAC some time ago.
Since I sell a few items on eBay, I would really need to be able to use the standard input rather than HTML option. Has anyone had this problem before, or do you regular Firefox users know of a way of changing setting that would help?
I also thought about just reverting to IE briefly when using eBay, but for some reason Firefox seemed to 'dominate' my PC -I couldn't get IE to open up. I had to un-install Firefox before I could use IE again
Where I am going wrong?
Thanks in advance........

You could try using the eBay Turbo Lister program instead - a lot easier to use, I find
With regards to using IE if pages don't show properly in Firefox download and install the IE View extension : simple right click and IE will fire up0 -
I agree with clayts. My Mrs only ever uses turbo lister now. It uploads without the need of any browser. Microsoft have been very clever in making alot of program "not so compatible", but then saying that, alot of programs (Firefox, AOL etc) all like to take over everything. Give it a go!:j BigalusDickalus :j0

Thanks for the tips. Will try the extension this weekend, and if that fails will give Turbo Lister a go.
