Re: lynx - not all sites readable

Show all headers | View raw

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
