I think he's complaining that it doesn't show _xml_ source. The missing "aha!" here is that the _server_ is sending different pages, according to the wishes of the browsers. Opera tells it that "application/xml" is an acceptable data type; Lynx doesn't. The source sent to Lynx is "text/html" because that's what Lynx offers to parse. >Bela< _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
