Seems to me that it is behaving strictly according to the book. Without the quotes, it's an SGML violation (:, @, ?, = and space are all invalid in unquoted parameter values), but even reasonable error recovery for that error has to stop at the first space and treat "is", "a" and "test" as being non-standard attributes with IMPLIED values. Spaces aren't valid in URLs because they could be lost or accidentally inserted if documents are printed, sent as non-MIME email, etc. Ignoring them seems a perfectly reasonable thing to do. I haven't checked for special case exceptions for mailto, but I don't think there are any - I think you have to use %20. What you are really asking for is bugwise compatibility with the big 2. If you are authoring this page, please make it conform, rather than ask Lynx to cope with common malpractice. ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
