The problem comes when I have a code sample that goes something
like this::

Which is really supposed to render to something like the following
in almost any browser except lynx.

Now the content is irrevelent but the rendering dosn't do anything in the new
lynx
2.8.2. rel 1 ok not 2.8.3 but close enough.
To get this to work properly I had to use 2.5FM with the following options
Options Menu (Lynx Version 2.5FM)
E)ditor : NONE
D)ISPLAY variable : NONE
B)ookmark file : lynx_bookmarks.html
F)TP sort criteria : By Filename
P)ersonal mail address : NONE
S)earching type : CASE INSENSITIVE
display (C)haracter set : ISO Latin 1
Raw 8-bit or CJK m(O)de : ON
preferred document lan(G)uage: en
preferred document c(H)arset : NONE
V)I keys : OFF
e(M)acs keys : OFF
K)eypad mode : Links are numbered
li(N)e edit style : Default Binding
l(I)st directory style : Mixed style
sho(W) dot files : OFF
U)ser mode : Advanced
user (A)gent : Lynx/2.5FM libwww-FM/2.14
My questions I guess boil down to two things
1. Why does the output of comments not work properly in the default
config for the program in the new releases. The output that
I get shows nothing in the way of proper indentation at all but just
a long list of comments that you visually can't attach to anything
2. Is there a way to fix this to work the same way that other browsers render it
properly in nested mode. I also find it interesting that this could be fouling
up in a new product compared to an old one.
If anyone is interested in the code I got it's from the recent poll at
http://www.slashdot.org and the first comment and the first response to the
first comment.
The options that I use for compiliation (that are from the options menu are
thus).
