linis-2.0pre and java

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi everybody.
Just wanted you all to know that links-2.0pre5 (or whatever pre number it is
when you look at the home page for links) supports some javascript. It doesn't
handle everything,, but it can make a big difference. I have been unable to use
the www.schwans.com website for over a year due to the javascript. Using
links2.0pre5, I was able to complete an online order last night.
The links home page is found at
lynx http://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mikulas/links/
go down to the link that talks about javascript and to the download page from
there. It does have graphics support but will work in text mode unless you
compile in graphichs.
the compilation directions are shown right on the site; you want to compile
using
--enable-javascript --with-ssl
I am really thrilled to have finally found something that will handle at least
some of the javascript issues.
