I could not reproduce your experience.
Here's the bottom line after the redirects:
-- dump of information page showing properly formed link

-- end information page
In the trace I find the following
-- trace fragment
getfile: getting http://www.habeas.com
HTParse: aName:`http://www.habeas.com'
relatedName:`'
HTParse: result:www.habeas.com
fix_httplike_urls: URL 'http://www.habeas.com'
changed to 'http://www.habeas.com/'
-- end trace fragment
which clearly shows where what you are not getting is performed by my copy of the program.

Noticed this with some 2.8.4 vintage Lynx, downloaded 2.8.5dev.9 and got the same thing:$ lynx http://www.habeus.com/ Using http://www.habeas.com [Current link is http://www.habeas.comabout/overview.htm] I misspelled the name of their site -- I typed "habeus" where it should have been "habeas". They redirected to the correct site, but without a trailing slash. Lynx then based all of the relative URLs on that page on the prefix "http://www.habeas.com";, sans trailing slash. I'm sure the redirect was wrong, and should be fixed. I'm not so sure whether Lynx was doing something wrong here, or maybe just "not sufficiently right". A cross-check with Netscape (4.7, all I had handy) shows that it takes the redirect in the right spirit. The redirect looks like: HTTP/1.1 302 Found Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 22:48:09 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) mod_perl/1.24 Location: http://www.habeas.com Connection: close Content-Type: httpd/unix-directory and would be perfect if there was a trailing "/" on the Location: header. >Bela< ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
