    Default HTML codes in product listing page, pls help!

    Hi,

    I have used HTML codes for my product description and it works fine on the product info page. When I go back to the product listing page (the category), there are abstract of my product descriptions under each product's name, however, instead of showing plain English, they all shown in HTML codes!

    For example

    "Automatic Soap Dispenser
    Untitled 2 .style1 { border-color: #BFD353; border-width: 0; } .style2 { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #FFFFFF;..."

    How can I use HTML codes in product info at the same time to avoid showing html codes in product listing page??

    thanks!

    It looks like you are pasting embedded styles from your html editor into each description. Assuming you use mostly the same styles for each product, you can paste those style declarations once in your stylesheet, and they will apply to every product description on your site.

    thanks for your reply

    so you mean I can't include the styles on product info page, instead, I have to add it to the style sheet?
