[LYNX VERSION: "(Lynx Version 2.8.5rel.1)" ].
I "call up" the history-page, which has the structure,
it appears, like this:
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN hit "L" key (histPage)
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN "went-on to" THAT page.
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN "went-on" to (went fwd
to) THAT page
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN "went-on" to (went fwd
to) THAT page
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN "went-on" to (went fwd
to) THAT page
[<link-num>] name & url of site being visited WHEN "went-on" to (went fwd
to) THAT page
... etc
So, I'm looking at the (depicted above) history-page
(note: which is tself NOT shown in that stack" of sites) and
interpret it as follows:
If, while sitting here in the hist-page, I hit *one* backspace,
that'll put me back at the site named at the top of that "stack".
If, while sitting in the (above) hist page, I had instead
hit backspace *twice*, that would have put me back to the site
listed just below the top one showing there.
If, while sitting in the (above) hist page, I had instead
hit backspace *three* times, that would have put me back to the site
listed in the THIRD line in the stack.
Etc.
BUT -- I find it doesn't quite work that way. What
actually happens is that actually gets me *farther*
down the "stack" than the number of backspace's keyed-in.
Like, if, say, "google" appears on the "stack" maybe six down
from the top, and I start hitting backspace's, I might get there
after hitting (keying-in) only two or three of them.
Any idea what's happening?
Thanks,
David
