hello. Okay. I tried -nocolor with lynx + ncurses. It works fine and doesn't demonstrate the same problem. This is a different problem -- the select choices in the pop-up window are not rendered at all, it's not that they're rendered in a transparent color, they're just not there. I think there is still an issue with the base libcurses library and, like Brett, I think it's different than the problem he already solved.
Good to know about the color issue, though. -thanks -Brian
