lynx-dev lynx wierdness

[Duncan]

under lynx version 2.8rel2 (from debian distribution site)
i find some pages impossible to read.  the text set apart
as bold with the < b > tag is rendered as black on black.
an example of this can be found at
   http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/9498/windoze.html

same goes for text set off as < i > italicized < /i >.  see
   http://www.slashdot.org/

under that version as well as under version 2.6 (slackware)
i find that < dl > dictionary listings aren't handled properly.
most of the content is simply not rendered.  an example of 
this can be found at
    http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~habreu/faq.html

version 2.3beta handles both of these situations nicely,
but is particularly unkind to tables, frames, tags nested
inside comments, etc.

hope this helps,
