lynx-dev BUG: lynx can't view NY times articles

[Steven G. Johnson]

I can't view articles in the NY times (www.nytimes.com) using Lynx.  I have
observed this problem with Lynx 2.7.1 on a Pentium Pro running Redhat 4.2
(kernel 2.2.0) and also on a PowerPC (LinuxPPC R4, kernel 2.2.1) running
Lynx 2.8.1rel.2.

When I try to view a NY times article (e.g.
http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/02/biztech/articles/24soft.html), a
bunch of messages flash quickly by at the bottom of the screen (faster than
I can read) and I end up not going anywhere.  No error message is
displayed.  (Note that the NY times is a registration-required site.  It
uses cookies to keep track of my username and password.)  It used to work
in the past, so I don't know what has happened.  When I run the command:

lynx -error_file=foo
http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/02/biztech/articles/24soft.html

the result is:

lynx: Start file could not be found or is not text/html or text/plain
      Exiting...

'cat foo' returns:


URL=http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/02/biztech/articles/24soft.html
(GET)
STATUS=HTTP/1.0 302 Found


Let me know if there is any other information I can provide.
