lynx-dev Fwd: Re: contacting Lynx developers

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

With Lynx 2.8.3 dev something I verified Neil's problem, both in
searching for job titles and in getting a listing from a category
within a category (engineers, electrical).  Oracle says that Lynx has
filled in "dummy" for unfilled fields of the query, whereas IE 5.5 says
"all" for those fields.  Sorry I didn't look a little longer at the
URLs; they are very long.

Hi Lloyd,

There is a particular website, <http://www.workopolis.com> which, when
you
initiate a search with Lynx, always returns an Oracle error.  No other
browser appears to exhibit this behaviour.  My theory is that Lynx is
messing up the query string somehow, but this isn't a problem I'd try
to
hack away at without some direction...

I hadn't, but looked aroudn this morning; does a post to
address@hidden
automatically go to the list?  Searching June and July's archives for
my
name and address didn't produce anything (I sent a copy of my report in
both months).  

Any suggestions much appreciated!

Cheers,
Neil
