Hi all,
I'm in the process of reviving an old (approx. 15 years) site which apparently linked to eBay, probably to retrieve available items for sale.
Here's an example of a URL found in the old code:
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://ilapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&ai=cuotnrjxs&bdrcolor=FFCC00&cid=0&encode=ISO-8859-1&endcolor=FF0000&endtime=y&fntcolor=000000&fs=3&hdrcolor=FFFFCC&img=n&lnkcolor=0000FF&logo=3&num=3&numbid=n&paypal=n&popup=n&prvd=1&query=sinclair+%28amplifier%2c+amp%29&r0=1&shipcost=n&siteid=3&sort=MetaEndSort&sortby=endtime&sortdir=asc&srchdesc=n&tbgcolor=EEEEEE&title=Sinclair+amplifiers+currently+on+eBay&tlecolor=FFCE63&tlefs=1&tlfcolor=000000&track=1018949&width=730"></script>
ilapi.ebay.com doesn't even resolve anymore, so obviously this code is obsolete.
What do I replace it with to make it work with the eBay of 2020?

That looks like an old eBay Affiliate code (currently called eBay Partner Network). I see that you are in Norway and that the code references the UK site.
The search words are "Sinclair Amplifiers".
Sort order is "ending soonest".
It also links an affiliate id for earning a commission.
If you would like an updated affiliate code for your current website (for earning a commission), you can create or log into your partner account here:
eBay's partner network has a new promotion to engage sellers in the program, and today there was a weekly chat with staff on the topic here:
