Check out this auction, wait for it to load, scroll down and tell me what's wrong.

It won't load using Netscape 4.7, stops dead after the first 2 lines in the description.

I only know a teeny bit of HTML, but I looked at the source code, and after your description you've got:
</scr!ipt> </HumanClick>
Perhaps the ! in the </script> tag is what's messing it up?
(Just a guess!)

I see 2 </table>'s in the HTML and no beginning <table> code. Not sure if that's the problem but it could be.

The bid box is not appearing!
On my IE 5.5 the page ends just below the black HTML description box.

Just tested it. The problem (at least for MSIE) is the ! in the </script> tag.
Here's your description with the ! taken out -- it loads completely in MSIE:

Whether that'll fix it in Netscape, I don't know.

you mean the ! is in my description, or on eBay's HTML?

The ! is in the HumanClick portion of your description where it's trying to close the HumanClick script. I had to scroll to the right to find it when I did a View Source.
Also, I think there's an "enter" immediately after the ! because the last part of the tag ipt> is on the next line by itself (at least on my screen). Might check that as well.
(edited to add last paragraph)

You've also got a < /body > < /html > immediately after the humanclick stuff. Some browsers, once they see that, stop reading anything afterwards.
Edit that out, and make whatever other corrections everyone has suggested so far and then see how it works.

The weird thing is that I alrady checked my other auctions, and only this one's screwed.
I copy/paste the whole template and edit just the text parts.

I don't see a thing wrong with it EXCEPT -- no one can bid on this item. Nice pictures, though. Jeez -- how frustrating. Raise hell with eBay or Auction Watch or both! I think I better go check my auctions now.....
