I tried it without the target="_parent" line, but that makes no difference. I still get the same error message. (You can test it yourself, the query for the brandname is now without the target defiition).

The target="_parent" tag seems to be relevant; it wants to open a page inside a frameset, which isn't possible since lynx doesn't know about it. Look at the output of lynx -trace, the request seems to get sent as: Composing Authorization for linux-wless.passys.nl:80/query_part.php?brandname= 2Wire HTAASetup_lookup: No template matched `query_part.php?brandname= 2Wire ' (so probably not protected) HTTP: Not sending authorization (yet). Writing: GET /query_part.php?brandname= 2Wire HTTP/1.0\r Host: linux-wless.passys.nl\r I didn't add in the line wrap where brandname=2Wire is split (not sure why that is there - I'm using putty). I thought it might have been some js in there, but it's just that _parent tag and it really seems like the server is responding correctly. Stefan Caunter http://caunter.ca/contact.html
