that browser should bring the solution

As already pointed out, the structure of Lynx is fundamentally incompatible with a general ECMASCript/DOM/BOM implementation. That's basically because it renders on the fly and never generates a document object model, so a script cannot expect things to change if it tries to modify the DOM.

Any making of Lynx work in that environment would be a kludge, which would have to be continually redone as the Google scripting implementation changes with time. Tracking even just one site in this way would be a pain for the developers.
