Hi folks!
can anyone help me with this one, please?
I saw this on the sheet with the last newsletter and tried to use it.
In the "G"oto command, I typed the URL as per said sheet, and got what did indeed look like a search engine.
I typed my search conditions - forget what I was looking for now - and pressed Return on the "search" link.
Got something very confusing that wasn't at all like search results.
Eventually realised it was trying to tell me it couldn't do any searching for me till I'd told it what good cause I wanted the funding to go to.
Huh??! I'd "G"one-to the ukkeratoconus..... address. So - really??!
Tried to find a link for chose charity, and find the KC group, and ended up with one of those error messages about "Unsupported URL scheme" and never did find the KC group listed, let alone select it.
Help!
Am I doing something wrong, or is it a problem with (in) accessibility of easysearch for people using text=only systems?
I'm using the public-access Lynx service at lynx.scramworks.net by telnet from my demon account - this being the best demon have come up with, would you believe??!!!

I suspect, Rosemary that you're right. I'll try it out on my own Lynx (the advantage of using a Linux box!) and get back to you.
