When I write website pages, I used php's include to bring in my header and footer. That way if I change them, it's in one place.
Is there any way to do that with ebay listings? For instance, I have generic standards for my listings, same for all my listings, that I'd like to bring in.
What is here for this? What do you use if anything?

It would be nice if smaller sellers were allowed to do custom HTML layouts, but I think the whole "active content disabled" thing prevents that now. Not sure how the bigger retailers get away with it though. Granted they get lots of special privileges and treatment. I believe this eBay link lays out what we are allowed to use regarding HTML:

Think about this for a minute, from eBay's perspective and from the buyer's perspective.
A seller could have an "include" that says a ring is "solid 24k gold", and then change the "include" after the sale to say it is just "gold plated" or even just "gold colored".
eBay is never going to provide a loophole that allows a seller to store part of a listing description on a site that is outside Bay's control, and for which eBay has no record of what it contained or when it was changed.
