Here's the complete URL to your auction list, John:

http://cgi6.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewListedItems&userid=benedict%40webtv.net&include=0&since=-1&sort=2&rows=25

Here's what shows in the message portion of the last post where you tried to include the URL:

http://cgi3.ebay.com/aw-chi/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPCommand=ViewListedItem

As you can see, it is truncated. Sorry I confused the issue last post by mentioning a lot number as I thought you were trying to link to a specific lot. However, the diagnosis is the same: something is cutting off the URL, or you are doing it by manual typing and you're not seeing the entire string when you look at the eBay screen. Best to always use the 'cut and paste' method of these complex strings.

Well, I see that's not the whole problem. When I previewed my reply, I see the bb program is not properly interpreting some of the special characters. It stops interpreting the string as a URL when it sees the "%" sign. I think the board had this problem in the early days. Greg, you might want to look at this. However, when you paste the string into the box called "Optional Link URL", it works fine.
