    hi guys are any of you familiar with ebay's? basically ive had a listing and shop template created 2 x html files and 1 x style.css. Now the thing is ebay's own css conflicts with my files i need an experienced ebay coder to help me out im willing to pay for your time aslong as you know what you are doing with ebay and css
    My templates and images are hosted and ready to fire!

    this is what ive read and that needs to be done

    When using CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) in your Item Description, please make sure to follow a simple rule.
    Do not set a class for standard HTML tags such as TD and TH.
    These may be overridden by eBay.
    Use your own font tags instead, or use classes on your own custom divs

    I've worked on ebay auctions for a few years now (primarily for a camera store). The key is to make sure you define your own stuff seperately from ebay's Meaning naming your own divs and such so that when you change the CSS you're not conflicting with ebay's defaults. Or if you wrap your auction text in a div such as <div id="ebayid-body"> so that in your custom css you can preced everything with #ebayid-body , restricting your rules only to things inside that div.

    Also ID selectors override any class selectors.
