Hi Thomas,

To come back onto this topic: after taking the full 2.8.5 dev5 (18 nov
2001) lynx sources, configuring and compiling it on my Mandrake system,
doesn't resolve my problem. You speak about newlines/spaces, but I was
essentialy dealing with a lack of quotes ("").
I guess we were on another track. So I need to refer to my previous post
again.
Thanks again for your comments and efforts.
A happy new year BTW to all subscribers of the lynx-dev list! Party time
here ;)

Lieven
