is HTML editor broken or locked down?

Hi - I am trying to add a link to product specs in my listing description, like so:

 

click <a href=“https://www.harmankardon.com.au/BTA+10.html” target=“_blank”>here</a >

 

When I try to add anything in the HTML Editor the cursor and added text just jumps to the end and added HTML code just vanishes.

 

I used to to this a lot - has there been a change???

Someone with more knowledge on this could probably answer you better than me, but I seem to remember something quite some time back about changes to this, that it could no longer be used.

You can no longer add HTML or links to external sites to your listings.

 

eBay sent numerous notices about this last year.

The issue turned out to be a glitch in Safari. Worked fine in Firefox. 

 

Shame about the policy change - was handy to give buyers a simple link to product specs.  

 

BTW you can still add links - but only to videos.
