If so, lynx isn't like that. Up and down arrow in lynx takes you to next and previous hyperlinks, not lines of text on screen. Tab and Alt-Tab will do the same, by the way. Please note it's the old, traditional Unix Alt-Tab, and not Windows Shift-Tab for backward motion in lynx. PS; Michael, do you think you might limit yourself to one though per sentence? I, for one, would find it much easier to answer your questions if you could learn to end one sentence before starting another thought. I'm willing to wager you've heard this criticism from various teachers before, but you needn't answer me on that, of course.
