I've already tested the fix as we speak, but this should go on record. > Is lynx wrong for displaying this stuff? Should I bug it? Well, that depends on how you look at it. It would be nice if lynx (and also links) would have the same options as Mozilla wrt <link>s. By the way, Osama already has files wishlists against lynx and links for this. > But definitely the link syntax should be fixed - whatever this stuff > is used for won't work.
