Hi Dutch,

Actually I got that information from a Google staffer working with 
accessibility.  Such was why, at the time, gmail stopped working with 
links.
they have changed that factor though, and links often produces more 
detailed search results than lynx.
I appreciate your providing this correction.
Still, that brings up two questions of my own regarding links.
first, does the browser still not accept cookies?
and second, what is the comparative solution to Hans' forbidden  site 
problem?
I do not know if I can alter the send user agent  command in links.
I would welcome an idea though, because there are times when using links 
is the wiser option, but that barrier presents a problem.
Thanks,
Karen
