I'm having problems with the HTML in Sales Manager Pro. I am able to post my HTML in SMPro and upload it and it will show up correctly online the first time I upload a listing. After some time (meaning days or weeks), the HTML may become corrupted and show something like this in the description box in SMPro:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=unicode">
<META content="MSHTML 5.50.4807.2300" name=GENERATOR></HEAD>
<BODY>
<P> </P></BODY></HTML>
...clearly not the HTML I put in there in the first place. I have not been able to pinpoint why this is happening, nor been able to efficiently reproduce it. Has anyone else had this problem? I am using the latest version, as stated in the title.

Hello,
Is this HTML posted in a profile or do you post it in the description each time you create a listing? I have actually not seen this happen to other listings before.

I post a new description for every item. I copy the HTML from a program and copy-and-paste it into the description field in SMPro.

Hello Kathy,
The HTML text that you quote is inserted by the SMPro HTML editor, usually when there is some bad HTML code in the description text. For instance, it will be inserted when there are unbalanced <BODY> tags in the description text (a <BODY> tag is opened, with no </BODY> tag to close it).
The resulting HTML is not corrupted; on the contrary, it should help render the description text correctly, even when HTML code problems are detected.
