Dear Prof Klaus:

  That homework assignment is beyond me.

  Perhaps a few more clues?

  Better yet, just give the answer.

  About what lynx knew or didn't know, I recall (and that's all
   I have to go on, memory from some days ago, not now being
   able to reproduce the problem of the "bad" L-page),
   that I had NO PROBLEM actually CLICKING on the items
   on the page FOR WHICH the L-page was generated.

  Perhaps your clue, whatever it is, will give us a way
  to DUPLICATE that "bad" L-page?

Thanks

Your student,

David
