How do you link to a specific eBay auction?

    May sound like a simple question, but I have tried everything and nothing works.
    I have tried dismantling the eBay affiliate text link code so I can add my own URL, that still does not work, it takes me straight to the main page of eBay.

    I just want to create a text link with my affiliate code in it to a specific auction.

    Simple, right?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I will try again.
    However when I use the Flex tool the link is always dead.

    Figured it out.
    Here is the code for any one that needs it.

    One with tags, one without.
    The parts that are highlighted are the parts that you want to change, the auction number, you SID and PID and what your text link will say.
    <a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-0000000-0000000?loc=http%3A//cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D5614695213">INSERT TEXT HERE</a>

    http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-0000000-0000000?loc=http%3A//cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D5614695213

    Have fun.
