What I meant was that eBay may have changed the structure of the site
and obsoleted some pages or changed where some they redirect you after
you fill out a form. It happens with my ISP's web mail page every once
in a while - I have a page bookmarked so that I can get directly to the
login form, but they keep changing things to try and force you to login
from the main portal page (presumable so you will have to read the ads
there.) So, I have to update my direct-login link every few months.

You're welcome - glad it worked out without needing major surgery.
