Thanks. I had saved those strings before, but here is my problem. I don't want to mess with my options until i know i have it right, so I would prefer to use the --useragent= command-line option to test it. Lynx will accept the Mozilla/4.0, but it doesn't like the parentheses at all (unexpected token). That's why i asked about the formatting. By the way, I thought you weren't supposed to change the .lynxrc directly because it will be rewritten again completely when you run options again; at least that's what the top of my .lynxrc file says. At any rate, I'd much rather start out using the command line. so I guess I need to go looking for some documentation of how to put more than just the first part, Mozilla/4.0, in the command line string. -- Cheryl
