        That link is for a server-side image map.  Netscape will inline
the image, and when you click within it, will send the server the x,y
coordinates, to receive the corresponding document.  Lynx will display
the ALT string as a link, and when you activate it, will send a
"stab in the dark" 0,0 coordinate pair.  The SCO server is set up
to treat that as a request for the default, which is a menu of links
for text clients.   If all worked fine when I tried it, so perhaps
you should review the Lynx online 'h'elp sections on server- and
client-side image maps.
