Larry,
That page, much like it seems the fox news site is apparently worried
about the user agent header.
I just tried your link and indeed got the 403 forbidden error.
however when I chose the options menu in lynx, and unchecked the send user
agent header, the page loads perfectly.
It can be a tad of a dance, but this setting does not remain changed by
default.
Amazon used to dot he same thing.
I frankly wish Lynx had better press. More technical people know about it,
and yet the user agent header can present this problem.
I cannot remember what site still did not work after the change, but making
it can open more doors.
Hope that is helpful,
karen

Almost as frustrating as a lack of javascript support, are pages such as
a
European site of Politico. If I try-and-visit
http://politi.co/1E9VmB2
I receive a 403 forbidden error, says something about nginx. An only
other way
of reading this in Lynx, grab the page with wget-and-rename to an
extention of
.html. But then I cannot click on any urls as at the bottom of the page,
says,
"more file" instead of an url. elinks does work with politico.eu. In
addition, I
really wanted a simpler printer version of individual stories, but seems
to be
hidden in javascript. Thanks in advance if some1 can please examine.
