    I thought there would be problems when I saw:

    0.99.79 released
    UPDATE - Titles changed to 80 character limit from 55
    UPDATE - Updated to UTF8 character set
    UPDATE - Some characters were missing or being corrupted on import
    UPDATE - Extra spaces within HTML tags causing problems
    UPDATE - Editing auction via GTG was taking much longer than normal

    Aside from that do a search on eBid for the fraction 1/2
    the number 12 is prevalent.

    of course it might not just be the fraction that is causing the problem, it could be the speech marks as well ( " )

    Still a problem with speech marks as in item number 62370290

    listings ok in turbolister but as soon as the listings are imported in Ninjalister it put double speech marks
    also adding item specifics to the bottom of the listings
