javascript links won't open on ebay

Windows XP, using Internet explorer or Mozilla Firefox...both experience the same problem. When I try to click a link that is javascript (I only know this because that shows up in my bottom task bar when I put my cursor on it) nothing happens. The link changes colour as though "activated" but then nothing happens. I've updated everything and enabled scripting, like other sites said to do, but nothing changes.
