Re: [Lynx-dev] lynx updates
I somehow accidentally deleted the original message I'm replying to, and have manually copied it from the archive at lists.nongnu.org. I've also copied the message-id into my headers, so hopefully it will thread properly.

I've just installed the newest stable version and found the same issue, so I looked into it.

Re: [Lynx-dev] lynx updates
It is the only browserr I use. Many blind folk stick with it for its text only approach, ease of use with screen readers and speed.
