- forcing inappropriate resubmission of form content.
+ --enable-internal-links (prevent defining DONT_TRACK_INTERNAL_LINKS)
+ With this option, `internal links' (links within a document to a
+ location within the same document) get treated differently. Lynx
+ can distinguish between `<A HREF="foo#frag">' and `<A HREF="#frag">',
+ for example, within a document whose URL is `foo', and may handle
+ them differently. Practical differences appear only when the
+ containing document is the result of a POST request or has a no-cache
+ flag set. According to the author of this feature, it does The Right
+ Thing, interprets URL-references as required by RFC 2396, and prevents
+ inappropriate resubmissions of form content with the POST method.
+ According to a previous lynx maintainer, it does the wrong thing,
+ is unnecessary, and can cause inappropriate resubmission of form
+ content.
