I'm still on pre15; didn't realize newer versions came out that
recently.  Has there been improvements to javascript support in these
later versions?

I may have confused things a bit.  Yes, it was spidermonkey I was
thinking of.  I recall reading the various requirements to get
elinks going and at the time, it seemed overwelming to me.  Maybe it
isn't all that bad but for some reason, I thought I heard that
spidermonkey had some strange quirks.  Is elinks that good a deal?
