Yes, sorry for getting exasperated, but that is not what I mean.

Go to quote.yahoo.com (fine)
go to the register/log in link (fine)
Type in your username/password, select the "login" link.

NOT FINE..  It now goes to some (I think) bogus error screen explaining that
it needs cookies.  But Lynx *does* support cookies.  So there is some other
reason that it won't work, and I just am interested in knowing *why* it
doesn't work..  and that would help lead me or other developers to hopefully
advance Lynx so it will work on these types of links.

I'm also CC-ing this to the Lynx list.
