It isn't from a form or anything fancy, just a simple link that could look like: <A HREF="list_one_subject.cgi?397795902 000 DVD_1043951012 00000 list_subjects.cgi">DVD All Zones</A> And apparently, it looks like the Apache httpd server expects a %20 instead of the actual ' ', and the other browsers provide it, but Lynx provides the actual [special] character. I will see if I can figure something out from the -trace flag log. Thank you very much, Peter ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
