Lynx 2-8-5dev.5 does not show the 123g bug, so it's the latest version. re the image bug, i had 1 failure earlier today with 2-8-4dev.19 , but on restarting Lynx was able to get the image at a 2nd try. it has to be something which varies with Lynx invocations, eg handling a slow or problematic connection (tho' i use broadband) or handling the randomly generated temporary directory/file names. i'll stick with dev.5 now i've installed it, so tomorrow's newspaper session will test its image capabilities.
