[Slogger] EBay

[Ken Schutte]

I believe these .dll pages still should have a content type of 
"text/html" specified in the header, in which case $type="text/html" and 
$typeext="html" should be set.

If you check the content type of the page and these variables are not 
set correctly, something is wrong, but I know this has worked in the past.
