Is anyone else getting popup error messages when using the search function on eBay? For the past 5 days, everytime it loads the results page I get about 6-10 "Error line X, do you wish to debug" popups. If I click no on all of them it loads fine . . . but it is annoying since it happens on every search results page (i.e. more than 1 page of listing).
Anyone else have this issue? Is it a browser setting? An eBay issue?
Thanks.

Try "Deactivate Script Debugging" in your browser options. Errors should now show up in the status bar only and not with a messagebox.

Not getting the error you are, but searching has been a pain lately. I will hit "next" for the next page of results and get the same page I am looking at. Sometimes up to three times. Sometimes, it skips ahead - i.e. the auctions on the page I am looking at end in 34, 35, 36 minutes and then I hit "next" and it jumps to auctions ending in 1 hour 24 minutes, etc. I have to play with the "back" , "next" and "numbered pages" to find the missing results.
This is just occuring when I am viewing all auctions ending soonest.
I am also getting a problem on "completed" items. Once I search for a "completed" auction, I can not remove the "check" for "completed" and begin to search for current auctions. No matter how I try or in what combination I remove the "checkmark" , it apprears back in the "completed" auctions box. I have to go back to a whole new seach through a bookmark and start over.
It's getting to be real pain in the ass!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Can you use eBay UK for searching? Whenever someting is wrong with eBay Germany, I just log in via eBay.com or eBay UK, it works fine every time.

Ralf,
Thanks for the idea on script debugging. That solved the problem.
However, I cannot think why this started in the first place. I have not modified the settings of IE in a very long time.
Regardless, you've made my eBay browsing a lot easier. :D Thank you.

BeyondtheBreach,
I am getting the completed items error as well. I thought it was related to my search issue, but I just tested it and it seems that it is still happening. It looks like the checkbox is continuously maintaining the same state once it is checked. At least a user can go back to the MyeBay section and then search again.
