Re: lynx - not all sites readable
Hi,
Forgive this not being in context.
If you are using the most current development edition of Lynx from April
25 of this year and you are reaching sites that present a message like
the following,
403 forbidden,
I suggest you try the following.
open the options menu and arrow down to the item that says
"send user agent," with an exclamation mark because the change cannot
be saved permanently.
unchecked this option do the temporary save options and you will get
confirmation that the value has been accepted.
if you are still on the site in question, things may improve right
away. if not try the site again, with positive results..or such is
my experience almost all of the time when I reach the forbidden message.
I hope this is helpful,
Karen

Correction:
However, I could open www.nvidia.com, but could not jump to the submenu
alled "Treiber". Then I tried to go to www.nvidia.de, but lynx told me,
"This site is forbidden".
Must be:
www.nvidia.de could be opened
www.nvidia.com was forbidden.
Sorry for that.
What do you get with
lynx -useragent "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0 Iceweasel/38.8.0" www.nvidia.com ?
