How come *some* item pages on ebay.co.uk display a usable 'add to watch list' link on the right-hand side - like this one <http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130608393510> (no, I was not going to buy that!) and some, like this <http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HUGE-Ruby-idea-red-sterling-Silver-Gemstone-Ring-BK9F9R1-s7-/300628604992?pt=Gemstone_Rings&hash=item45fedc7840> have only a javascript link?
And is there a reliable way of toggling between them? (Hang on - I think I've answered my own question. It all depends on whether you're logged in or not. If you're not logged, in it directs you to a page where you can log in and save the item to your watchlist; if you're logged in, it attempts to do the whole thing via Javascript. It would be much more useful if it were the other way round (you have to save the URL, then log out, then log in again) but it's a backdoor they evidently forgot about when they were implementing their Javascript-only features....) -- Harriet Bazley == Loyaulte me lie == He who has imagination without learning has wings but no feet.
