Hi all: I'm having a problem using w3 as regular user. I have to use proxy for http, and I have an environment variable HTTP_PROXY=http://fasthttp.sympatico.ca:80 set for both root and my normal user accounts. When I run xemacs with identical .emacs files as root and as a user, w3 fails to open any http url in the latter case. It is able to browse file:// or ftp://... The error message is attatched below.
w3 works fine if I run xemacs as root. Could it be some file permissions problem? Netscape works fine. I've asked this in *emacs* newsgroups, with no success. Could it be a Debian issue? I also tried setting corresponding lisp variable in .emacs. Hoping for a solution, TIA!
