Hi
I am using lynx with my university's web cache.
This is located at http://wwwcache.warwick.ac.uk:3128/
I incorrectly set the http_proxy enviroment variable to
http://wwwcache.warwick.ac.uk:3128
(without the trailing slash)
When I tried to follow any link with this setting, it seemed that lynx
would strip the `http:/' from the front of the link and then complain
that (say) `/www...' was an ill formed URL. This seems like odd
behaviour. Can anyone explain why the slash is required, and why
dropping it causes this problem
I have Lynx Version 2.8.1rel.2
which is running on redhat 6.0 (in case that is relevant)
Thanks
James
