Ok Arno, thanks for your help. I would like to help improve the existing interface, but, the existing ones are too complicated e have too many graphics, javascript... this kind of stuff ... and one of project's rules are "must be fully compatible and eye candy for lynx, links and elinks" in other words "must be very simple, objective and small".
One last question: Theres no way to talk directly with localhost:port ??? thanks a lot !!
