Sorry about that. It must be something else then because I cannot seem to use bank of america and a number of other shopping sites. I'm using the one obtained through darwin ports.

Why would you have trouble using it for ssl enabled sites? I've used it with ssl for years. If the copy you have doesn't have ssl, find another, or compile your own. I've not played around with lynx too much, though I do have it installed here. I'm working on a program that will read the terminal screen automatically. After I get that working, I was planning on going back to fiddle with lynx.

My next question was going to be does it have an option to change the default browser. My question was easy to miss interpret.

I'd make lynx my default browser but know I'd have a heck of a time using it for ssl stuff.

Hi
No, it's not a requirement and, interestingly enough, provides no way to change the default by itself which is why I had to go hunting for the option.

Appologies for misinterpreting your question and my response to it, guess that's what I get for not thinking before typing--sheepish grin

My question was meant to be is this a requirement for using it that it must be the default.

I'd forgotten about that. Did you accomplish it? It looks like it's one of those pickers many people seem to have issues with. Is it necessary to havve this browser be your default? Well, I don't know. Is it necessary for me to be able to customize my system the way I like? To answer the question: Yes, it did work. Shiira seems to work better on some sites than Safari, which is why I wanted to change it. It also allows the User-Agent header to be changed, which can give me access to some sites designed for IE only--my bank's site comes to mind here. I couldn't figure out how to accomplish that in Safari, though I'm sure there's probably a way to do this.
