I know it's a hassle, but you can always use ctrl-L to redraw the
screen, then it reads only the current screen as it redraws it. I've
used this many times to solve the exact problem you're referring to. I
am not sure what exactly causes it, but I believe it's related to the
vt100 vs. ansi terminal settings. Sometimes I was able to fix it by
changing my terminal type, sometimes not. You may be able to turn off
color changes in the lynx cfg which may solve this problem as well.
There's apparently different method used to update the screen when ansi
codes are used, as opposed to rewriting the whole screen when vt100
terminal emulation is used.
At least, that's been my experience over the years with any terminal
program, not just lynx.

Hi folks,
This one is hard to describe, will make more sense if you are using
lynx with speech of some kind.
previously as in for all the years I have used lynx, if I move to
another page, the contents of that page is all I hear.
for example if in the basic html for gmail, choosing to read a
message, or send one.
all I will hear is what is supposed to be read.
Now though I am getting bleed over from the previous page, in some
spots, as if the content is still there.
its honestly weird, because it has never happened before, ever.
A little concerning as well, since I can only assume the text is gone,
but am unsure why the browser is still reading it.
might this be a character set or display issue?
Thanks,
Karen
