Hi Karen-
Thank you for the suggestion but it doesn't really solve my problem.
Just as an example, right now going to www.nytimes.com there is a story headlined "Guantanamo Bay As Nursing Home: Terrorism Suspects Are Aging". There is no link there to access the story and no link for several stories that follow. The next link which is accessible is one regarding Trump pulling out of an arms treay during a speech.

Hi there,
May I make a suggestion?
consider visiting
mobile.nytimes.com

Instead.
what is happening is that at the very top of the layout in lynx, the browser is getting a couple of links out of the way. They are showcasing the new brief , but on the page there are still all of the active links, at the top and at the bottom. When you are accessing stories though, you will note a link that says something like 152 comments etc. if you examine the status line however you will find that link takes you to the full story.
Goal here is to allow more actual text for low graphics reading.
Granted I am unsure what you do on the times site. However you may find the mobile site more efficient.
sing out if you have more questions.
Karen

I am running Arch linux on a ThinkPad x220 and using lynx version 2.8.9rel.1 (08 Jul 2018).

I have lynx configured so that links and form fields are numbered.
The problem I'm having is that on certain sites (www.nytimes.com specifically) certain links are not numbered and lynx will tab right over them.

A comparison of the www.nytimes.com home page using lynx, elinks and w3m will illustrate better than I am able to explain it.

Any assistance or explanation why this is so will be appreciated.
