You are talking about Lynx's Line Editor. I was talking about Lynx's own commands. You'll have to do your own reading up about the use of ^V to gain access to Lynx's commands when using the Line Editor since that area is configurable, both using external stty settings and Lynx's KEYMAP, according to your shell/terminal/preferences. I never use that functionality myself since I find it easier to fire up Lynx in another virtual terminal to get information for filling in a form. Simply for your information my "Current Key Map" (seen by pressing "K") says: "^V SWITCH_DTD switch between two ways of parsing HTML". This is the source of the confusion.
