When you say "links", do you mean ELinks? If not, maybe you should try
links-list.

You can enable cookies in ELinks by going to the Setup menu, (alt-s),
Options manager, Cookies, Accept policy. The default is to accept all
without prompting.

The problem that you are experiencing might not actually be that ELinks
ignores the cookie, but rather that it is using the cache. Have you
tried reloading (ctrl-r) after submitting the form?

Links supports cookies, but doesn't have an option to prompt. You might
try reloading in that as well.

HTH,
