I've already told that I have to get lynx to send referer for the url that includes content from form submissions with method GET. In other words, there is a 2-step CGI script - when one visits it, it spews a form with method set to GET (not POST as was in your case) - and when one submits that form, lynx doesn't send http_referer along with it (as specified in the documentation for NO_REFERER_HEADER). Of course I tried setting the following explicitly in lynx.cfg: NO_REFERER_HEADER:FALSE REFERER_WITH_QUERY:SEND Best regards, -Vlad ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
