I find you have to skip several lines to get a blank line in Lynx.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Sue, how many?

Jeez, let me test... Two lines Three lines Four lines...I usually just use the br tag in Lynx anyway. Aha, it's not doing anything. Now I've edited it in Netscape and the line breaks are included. In Lynx now, and will they disappear.

Yup. Ouise's posts are broken with \\n\\n instead of \\r\\n.

How hard is it to add that to the code?

edit: interesting. My backslashes disappeared...

re-edit: Ahh! Thanks ita.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Easy for John. Less easy for me.

Backslashes have to be doubled. \\\\ to give \\.

Please don't worry about coding that. It isn't that much of a hassle to use br.

And I only use Lynx to catch-up these days, so I'm not sure there's a pressing need.

Are there any other Lynx users?

I thought it was a point of pride that our board would work well in Lynx. If it's an easy fix, I think we should do it.

But if it's easy for John to do it, why not wait for him to get back?
