Here's the line showing the path: > HTMIME: PICKED UP Set-Cookie: > 'disorder=none;Max-Age=0;Version=1;Path=/cgi-bin/disorder' ... Here's the chunk where lynx parses the URI and then prompts: HTParse: aName:`http://jukebox/cgi-bin/disorder' relatedName:`' want: host HTParse: result:`jukebox' HTParse: aName:`http://jukebox/cgi-bin/disorder' relatedName:`' want: punc path HTParse: (ABS) HTParse: result:`/cgi-bin/disorder' Confirm: Accept invalid cookie path=/cgi-bin/disorder as a prefix of '/cgi-bin'? (n) GETCH: Got 0x79. From your earlier statement, it seems that you would then expect lynx to compare the path "/cgi-bin/disorder" to "http://jukebox/cgi-bin/disorder";. That would always mismatch. Lynx is taking the path part of the URI and checking that (seems to work...). It mismatches, and prompts. For which URI is "/cgi-bin/disorder" a prefix then? -- Thomas E.
