Hi,

I'd like to be able to take advantage of text-based web browsers like 
lynx more often.  I have a few challenges.  First, I can't seem to 
access google.  Launching lynx, hitting g, typing www.google.com gives me:

Google Error 400 Bad Request
Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request.

Other webpages I can access fine.  Any ideas?

Another trivial question: I'd like to be able to scroll down in webpages 
rather then jump down to a new screen (if I can't see what I just read 
near the top of the page I get confused).  How do you do this? 

Thanks!  If I'm posting in the wrong forum, let me know. 

-Carl
